==== Firmware update architecture ====
|-
The T1 or model II power stand will now ignore the double update request. Enhancements have also been made to the L1® updater v. 1.1 for PC and L1® updater v. 1.0 for Mac that prevents the user from being prompted to retry the update. A message will now appear asking the customer to power cycle their T1 before attempting the update again.

=== Enhancements ===
|-
==== Windows Vista Compatibility ====
| Announcement

=== Release Notes  ===


==== Para EQ Range ====
[[Image:T1FirmwareUpdate18.gif]]
The Para EQ range has been increased from 8k to 16k to provide more flexibility for more demanding applications. As an added convenience the name of the musical note associated with the frequency now appears on the display of the {{T1}}.
<!--
The tuner can track instruments connected to channels 1-4. To access the Tuner
mode for a specific instrument, simply press the Channel Edit button of the
corresponding channel on the T1. The display indicates the note being played at
the bottom of the screen. As you tune, a pitch indicator appears on the display,
showing you whether the note is sharp or flat. Adjust the pitch of your instrument
so the cursor aligns itself with the center of the screen.


==== USB audio metering and streaming ====
==== New Features ====
USB audio is now reflected in the channel 4/5 input metering under the Preferences menu only. The Trim LED for channel 4/5 will no longer track USB input levels.
=====Transpose mode =====
The Transpose function allows you to tune your instrument to a pitch that's one
half to one full step higher or lower than the selected note.
Rotate the Transpose encoder control to select from the following tuning modes:


==== USB AUX Tap addition ====
bb mode (A=G) ...............Whole step down
USB is now available on channel 4/5 dry AUX tap.


b mode (A=G#) ...............Half step down


Normal mode (A=A)........Default


=== Prior Versions ===
<nowiki>#</nowiki> mode (A=A#) ...............Half step up


* Version 1.0 - Original as released from manufacturing (no download)
<nowiki>##</nowiki> mode (A=B) ...............Whole step up
* Version 1.1 - Internal release (no download)
* Version 1.2 - Internal Release (no download)
* Version 1.3 - Public Release (no longer required if you install 1.6) Notes below.
* Version 1.4 - Internal Release (no download)
* Version 1.5 - Internal Release (no download)


Press the Transpose encoder control to select the transpose mode.


The default pitch of A will be displayed in the lower left corner of the display along with the new target pitch.


== Version 1.3  ==
* Example 1
Tuning in bb mode is the equivalent of tuning down a guitar by one whole step, changing the pitch of the open low E string
to D.


''' This is not require if you install version 1.6 above '''
* Example 2
Tuning in # mode would be equal to placing a capo on the 1st fret of a guitar. The display would indicate A=A#.

===== Reference pitch =====


Date: 2007/08/10
The Reference pitch function allows you to change the A4 reference pitch within
the range of 430 Hz to 450 Hz. This is especially useful when playing/tuning with
classical musicians.


Recommended for: All {{T1}} Owners
Rotate the Ref. Pitch encoder control to change the A4 reference pitch to the
desired setting. When a reference pitch other than the default pitch of 440 Hz is
selected, it will appear in the lower right corner of the display.
