SyFonOne 1.021 has been released

SyFonOne has been updated.

SyFonOne is a tool for playing midi in real time from a midi input port. Connect SyFonOne to your keyboard port or to a virtual midi relay port like MIDI Yoke, Maple. or LoopBe1 (works on Vista and Windows 7). Choose the virtual midi relay port as the output port in your midi player. For example, using MIDI Yoke with VanBasco (see below). For lowest output latency output you may want to use ASIO. I recommend the free ASIO4ALL. Set the buffer size to 1024. See image for Setup details.

What was new in version 1.020?

New features:
- 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.

This is a "syphon". A syphon is a device that can transfer liquid from one place to another. More...
