I prefer the page title "Software" over "Useful Tools", although I'd probably go for a "List of..." format, since it's a list article. "List of software" sounds a bit too generic though, and I have yet to find a better (especially concise) phrasing to indicate that it's software related to microtonal music and tuning practice/theory. In any case, I suggest merging the pages. Any thoughts? --[[User:Fredg999|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999|talk]]) 03:43, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

: To me, such a merge seems like a good idea (both are lists), though I must admit I don't particularly like the "software" lemma. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 09:11, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

:: I think we could take direct inspiration from [[Wikipedia: List of music software]]. The word "software" seems to be the most appropriate here, but it shouldn't be alone in the title. Of course, we would focus on software that supports xenharmonic music, compared to Wikipedia's list, but mentioning that in the title might just overload it, since the context should be clear. --[[User:Fredg999|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999|talk]]) 14:13, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

::: I’m also in favour of merging the two articles. “List of Music Software” sounds like a good name to me too. --[[User:BudjarnLambeth|BudjarnLambeth]] ([[User talk:BudjarnLambeth|talk]]) 03:09, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
