Tuning Scales - how to make'm stick!?

Hi everyone.
Just exploring the too-often ignored menu guts of my sub37. I'm intrigued by the Tuning Scale within GLOBAL parameters. But when I cycle through the options, I hear no difference. Anyone know why?
Thanks!
Paul

I realize the Subs are a bit old now, but too bad this forum isn't as active as other synths. Perhaps I just missed the window of deep discussion on it. Maybe i'll try FB.

you should definitely be hearing a difference.
maybe the ones you were testing only had minor differences that were hard to hear?
Arabic 1 for example will definitely be more noticable than others.
the other thing i can suggest is, are you looking at the Default tunings, or did you import your own Scala tunings?
The sub37 tunings supports 12-note tunings. when i opened a 127 note tuning scale in the Phatty Tuning Editor, it pops up a window saying "Scale is not twelve tone". I hit Send anyway to see what would happen. it sends the Scale to the sub 37, and on the sub 37 i can see the Scale, but because it's a 127 note scale, it doesn't actually play properly, and will instead play normal chromatic default scale.
