Is there a way to do this?

Sure. For example, visit the LinnStrument Support page, click Tips & Tricks button, then search the page for “Harpejji Tuning”.

Cool, hidden functions to set any (whole number) row offset and a lefthand player option - very nice!
Can we also change the column offset somewhere? (So it still pitchbends, but with more semitones between cell centers. Like dividing one cell into two or three etc. narrower cells).
Fortunately there is no strong necessity to change anything pitch-mapping wise for Linnstrument - can be played as is without reservations. (Was different for Eigenharp Tau. There the default major thirds tuning in itself is nice, but was imho limiting for that instrument as it lead to about two octaves chromatic range. Fortunately changing the mapping as desired is an integral feature of Eigenharps)
So it's good to have a solid default ground that makes sense (in the meaning of: fits to the instrument)
That said - experimentation with alternative tunings or even mappings is still fun

Sorry, no. This is explained on the LinnStrument FAQ page, General tab, first FAQ: LinnStrument’s consecutive note pads within a row will always send consecutive MIDI Nite Numbers. However, you could define consecutive note numbers as minor thirds in your synth.
