- The lower limit of the THRESHOLD value for DUCKER has been changed from -30 dB to -60 dB.
- When turning on the main unit, GPIO-OUT with assigned User Key OUT would not output as set. This has been fixed.
- The Snapshot Lock state would not be saved in All System Data. This has been fixed.
- When loading a non-MAIN L/R registered All System Data file to the master module, the master module would change to MAIN L/R. This has been fixed.
- Data was not updated after overwriting a file with the same name when exporting All System Data. This has been fixed.
- When connecting the Sonicview to a Windows PC via USB, some noise would occur at the start of playback in some applications. This has been fixed.
- When the sample rate on a Windows PC was set to 96 kHz and a sound source was playing on it, if the Sonicview was turned on/off audio was not output correctly while the sound source was being played. This has been fixed.
- The GPIO-IN/Foot Switch pin input state was different from the GPIO-IN/Foot Switch pin input state when starting up the main unit and when reading All System Data. This has been fixed.
- When a stereo module was assigned to the Compressor and Ducker Key In Source, the Key In meters and gain reduction would operate in mono. This has been fixed.

- The User Key did not light up in the following case:
When the SB-16D's GPIO-OUT port is set to Local and the corresponding GPIO-OUT port is assigned to Parameter 2 of LED Indication > GPIO-OUT in the User Key setting of the Sonicview main unit. This has been fixed.
- When setting SB-16's GPIO-IN performance mode to "ALL Local", the Sonicview GPIO-IN would also operate. This has been fixed.
- When an SB-16D was mounted to the Sonicview, regardless of the settings, all SB-16D GPIO-OUTSs would turn to OPEN. This has been fixed.
