Firmware update 2.2.3 posted on 5.30.16 - here is the linkThis update added back some features that didn't make the jump from 2.1 to 2.2. Most importantly it brought back muting as a stand alone feature. As some of you noted, turning the unit off as a form of muting defeated the Trigger Out feature which can be used to turn off amps etc. Without this latest change, muting would shut off the Trigger Out. Also, we did fix a creepy little bug in the channel balance adjustment.
This update is not a critical update. Only update if these features are important to you.
Change: When on, pressing menu button mutes/unmutes the unit and leaves it on, while holding menu button down longer turns the unit off.
Change: Added blinking display for when unit muted
Change: Added Panel LED flash to acknowledge when user switches control modes (for DIY users with no displays)
Fix: Corrected a bug which prevented channel balance from working the same in both directions
New Feature Request - A/B Testing - We've received a request to add an A/B testing feature to the input switching. Currently the way it works is user selects input mode and then uses Raise/Lower buttons to select the desired input. Subsequently pressing Enter button locks in the selected input. If the input is different from current, the unit mutes, old input is shut off, new input turned on, and the unit unmutes. If we add the A/B testing feature, the user can optionally use the Left/Right buttons while in input mode. Doing so will immediately switch the inputs. If you're on 1, pressing Right will switch you to 2, pressing Left again will switch you back to input 1. Volume will not change using the fast A/B input switching mode and there will not not muting ramp down & ramp up of volume during the transition.
