Our friends at LinPlug have been working on a new virtual instrument called Spectral, which will be available in the fall of this year.
Having been on their beta group since microtuning features were added to their CronoX 3, I can affirm that Spectral is one of the most amazing sounding, fully microtunable instruments I've worked with in like - well - ever.
Seriously, this instrument is capable of making an incredibly vast range of exquisite timbres that can be used for explorations into the deep sound realms of alternative intonation, which display many resonant properties one would typically associate with acoustic instruments.
Like the rest of LinPlug's fully-microtonal virtual instrument line, Spectral will also use the TUN format which was invented by developer Mark Henning, and first introduced in his AnaMark VSTi synthesizer back in 2003.
As far as virtual instruments designed for alternative intonation goes, the LinPlug Spectral will no doubt be the big event of 2013. Excitement abounds...
