v43.0 [Jan 28, 2016]
- 32-bit floating point internal sound mixing adjustable to up to 96 kHz for highest possible sound output quality, making this the best sounding Soundplant ever.
- 256 sounds can be played simultaneously, with up to 12 channels of playback progress displayed in detailed view mode.
- Sound output device selection.
- Reverb, lowpass, resonance, and lfo realtime effects.
- Direct internal recording of Soundplant's output.
- Completely overhauled sound mixing engine now uses the great and lightweight FluidSynth, a solid and battle-tested open source sound engine enabling many of the above improvements.
- 'Hold down' mode allows precise control over key releases.
- Redesigned interface with more room for sound names, an enlarged waveform display, and vector graphics for better window stretching.
- Key labels text size setting.
- Customizable key label text.
- 'Buffer size', 'interface refresh rate', and 'key glow animation' settings for performance tuning.
- 'Background key input startup state' setting.
- 'Foreground window on sound trigger' setting.
- Added an 'only on sound trigger' option to the 'select key on key press' setting.
- Added a 'locate file…' option to the alert that appears when loading a keymap and the sound file can't be found in its original location, and improved. automatic searching for sound files when loading keymaps.
- 'Reload sound from disk' button.
- Improved master volume control offering up to 200% processed amplification.
- Finer individual key pan and volume control and better, smoother fades.
- Smoother realtime pitch shift.
- Onscreen keyboard layout changed to match the now more common layout with smaller return key and backslash on the row above it.
- RAM or disk loading option for each key no longer available, this is now handled automatically to take advantage of modern system capabilities with more RAM.
- Fade in and out times can be set to 0 to more easily have a key that only fades in or only fades out.
- 64-bit optimizations have been included for systems which support it, speeding up sound loading especially for compressed sounds.
- Improved support for surround sound files containing greater than 2 channels (Soundplant can now play them, but only as mixed down to 2 channels).
- Increased the 'recent keymaps' dropdown list size to 25 keymaps.
