Request: allow a different 1/1 reference frequency

[wolftune]

I can load a scala file, but it always treats 1/1 as C (or seems to). I have reasons to want to have a different pitch, like D or A be the reference point. It would be nice if that could be an option somehow.

@alignwaivers also raised his concern in #28 :

Still not sure why the default base value is assumed to be middle C though, is there a reason for this?

Sorry, I overlooked this issue, because I did not understand it completely at the beginning.

The way I see it, it is possible to use another pitch as the "base value" to start building the scale from it. Find below an example with a pentatonic scale built from A440, which I (maybe wrongly) called "mid-A":

If you have a scala file whose first note is supposed to be, say, A440, you can just load it and manually replace the name and frequency of the first note, and all the other frequencies will shift accordingly.

Does this fix your issue? maybe I am missing something here, do you see a better way of doing this?

I just didn't realize that the Frequency could just be edited already. It wasn't obvious I could just type it in, but there it is. It works already perfectly!

I literally just double click on "mid-A" and type in something else like "587.330" and indeed everything else adjusts appropriately.
