Past Release Notes

KUF v1.18 - 9/12/11

(containing: O/S v1.16; Objects v1.21; Boot Loader v1.48)

  1. The default split key has been changed to F#3.
  2. New Hard reset method: Holding down C8 (key 88) while powering on the unit will automatically do a "hard reset" and reboot. This is an added feature. The old methods still work too.
  3. "Rec Rhythm: On/Off" function has been added to functions menu. (see included addendum for details).
  4. When doing Splits and Layers the previously selected parameters - voice, transposition and volume, will be used (remembered from the last time a split or layer was done). These parameters will go back to defaults on power cycle.
  5. Bugfix - sometimes the sostenuto pedal could be reversed on boot-up. In the earlier version, if you had your foot down on the pedal during boot-up also it would reverse the pedal (not necessarily a bug). None of this happens in the new version.

KUF v1.16 - 2/15/11

(containing: O/S v1.13; Objects v1.21; Boot Loader v1.44)

  1. Additional 50 demo songs added.
