I've been using Synthesia for some time, and I was recently wondering if there was a way to use different soundfonts for it?
I am using a Mac, if it's of any importance.
Different soundfonts?
When describing problems, always mention your OS and game version (shown at the bottom of the title screen).
If your keyboard has USB or MIDI ports, there is a tremendously high chance (>99%) it will work with Synthesia. See what you'll need on the keyboards page.

Do you already have other MIDI-enabled software on your Mac with additional SoundFonts?
You could always redirect Synthesia's MIDI output to that program using the built-in virtual MIDI driver included in OS X. There are instructions here for enabling it. Once that's turned on, you can select the virtual driver in Synthesia for output and in your SoundFont-enabled program as input.
