Can you tune synths in just intonation?

I'm wondering if there are any synths that can be tuned to anything besides equal temperament
(if you don't know what just intonation and equal temperament are then you probably can't answer this question) |

oh yeah.. this is soo nice. I know only motif.. but also would be so nice if there are some other.
In logic you can tune in preferences by cents and change the temperament but to the whole song all instruments.For the pure temparament and standard chords (those with 3 keys) I see a big sense in advantage in doing so,would make a sense for sure.. even to bounce only them and get back to standard nowadays temperament for all other variations of chords.
Chords in the pure temperament (reine stimmung in german) sounds clearer and vibrate clearer in this old system.
In our temperament of today you can notice very easy the rubbing between the frequencies of a c maj chord (for instance) .In reine stimmung (i guess that must be pure temperament)it is a huge difference more nicely clearly pure no rubbings.
I wish they would integrate such functions of a change the temperament to virutal synthesizers asap.

I mean it would make sense for synths to use just intonation...
the reason equal temperament is used to tune instruments is that it sounds the same in any key whereas just intonation only sounds good in one key
but with synths it is not a big deal to retune for the key of the song so why not use just intonation? |

Albino.
Downloan software called Scalar and the archive with more than 1000 different tuning systems.
Download a converter to convert the scl. To .tun files.
Use the settings view in albino and change where it set to equal tempratment to any the tuning systems you want.. It changes the way your daw use the chromatic pianoroll.
You will hear it once you change it up.
