## Past Release Notes

> > - When saving a Multi and selecting an ID to save to, the Category buttons can now be used to select the first ID of a Category, even if the Global Mode "Sound Sel" Parameter is set to "ID number". Previously this only worked if the Global Mode "Sound Sel" Parameter was set to "Category".
> > - Edit: Pressing Favorite buttons will no longer exit the Save or Rename pages.

> > Fixes/Improvements:

> > - Edit: The current layer number is now shown on the Help page.
> > - Edit: Fixed a bug where saving an Arp preset could change the Program name.
> > - Edit: KB3: Fixed: Previously, after saving an Arp pattern to a new ID, the old ID number would still be displayed.
> > - When saving a Program and selecting an ID to save to, the Category buttons can now be used to select the first ID of a Category, even if the Global Mode "Sound Sel" Parameter is set to "ID number". Previously this only worked if the Global Mode "Sound Sel" Parameter was set to "Category".

> > - Program #127 APG-ish Bass - Changed Variation parameter text to "Motion Layer Enable" instead of "Arp Layer Enable" since it's really an LFO creating the motion and not and arp.

> GLOBAL:

> > Fixes/Improvements:

> > - Info Page: Object and Scanner "Ver" changed to "Version".
