rgc:audio have started to test sfz, a freeware high-quality multi-timbral SoundFont player, which was developed as a 'component' for rgc:audio's next synthesizer. However, they will be offering two versions of the raw component packed in a instrument: sfz (freeware) and sfz+ (commercial, soon to be released).

sfz is initially available as a VSTi for Windows (v0.52), a DXi version will also be released.

Go grab the beta now and help them make it better.
