- There is a virtual keyboard you can use to audition SoundFont Presets
- The Low Pass filter and the Modulation Envelope implementations are now the same as in SynthFont and Viena

- Compiled with the same exception reporting scheme as used in SynthFont and Viena

New in SyFonOne 1.030 (Nov 5, 2015)
- Compiled with a new compiler - resulting in a more stable executable
- Sometimes, when vanBasco is used as the source, SyFonOne did not receive the volume change message for a track, or, received a AllControllersOff message AFTER the volume change message, resulting in that the track was played at full volume. In relation to this, a new column, “Vol”, has been introduced in the tracks list window.
- SyFonOne can now also use a copy of the Configuration Settings file ("SyFonOne.ini") saved in the program's folder, provided the folder has write access.
- When playing, the thread priority is elevated, by default to “High”. You can change it to “Realtime” or “Normal” in Options.
- Many other minor bugs fixed.
New in SyFonOne 1.021 (Nov 5, 2015)
- On some systems SyFonOne would not start as it looked like it was already running
- In version 1.020 the Modulation Wheel (Continuous Controller #1) did not work
New in SyFonOne 1.020 (Nov 5, 2015)
- Major improvement:
- The rendering engine is now MUCH faster
- The note length was limited to 5 seconds. Now it is 50 seconds. Can be changed in Options.
- Can catch and handle short notes more efficiently
- New option: "Turn off overlapping notes". Use this if the polyphony (or overall "noise" level) gets too high and notes keep ringing.
- SyFonOne now automatically checks for available updates
New in SyFonOne 1.016 (Nov 5, 2015)
- Limited support for SoundFont bank changes. You cannot define your own banks, but SyFonOne will use banks already present in the SoundFont. Be aware of the possible conflict with SoundFont overrides!
- New "Reset Controllers" menu item (and Reset button - down-right - in Tracks List window). Use to reset a range of midi parameters left in an undefined state when a) playback of a tune is interrupted in the middle or b) the midi tune is badly designed and leaves data in a bad state when finished. For example; a tune may define the use of bank 5 but never reset it to bank 0 when finishing.
