does anyone know any way to use microtones with vst instruments?
a way to create different reference notes instead of the 12 western ones?

i.e.instead of a2 being 110hz
maybe an a2 being 112hz or some other microtone.

thanks for any help

Its called microtuning and many synths use the 'scala' tuning system (.tun) files.

Ones that I know of offhand are Albino, Cronox3/Sophistry, Cameleon5000.

The Camel Audio site has way too many tun files which you can download with the Cameleon demo so thats the place to go.

Also you could go to kvraudio and do a quick search for a fuller list of synths.
