Could you elaborate on how Audacity could be used for something like 
that? Is there a new module in Audacity, that handeles musical scales?

I second the recommendation for Yoshimi/Zynadd. In both you can 
configure the temperament in that Yoshimi interpretes incoming Notes. I 
*think* that some other synths like Alsa Modular Synth or Phasex will 
play incoming notes that are somewaht "bended" to non.standard scales as 
well.


Best of luck :-)
