Scale Workshop – scale-creation site by Lumi Pakkanen. Allows playing via QWERTY computer keyboard. Can also export .scl and .kbm files.
Xenpaper – text-based microtonal sequencer, like a notepad. Write down musical ideas and share the link around.
xen-calc – interval calculator that translates to/from ratios, cents, FJS and color notation, much more too.
