Please read this forum message from Jeff.
https://www.famcmusic.com/forum/firmware-lf-series/v6-00-beta-to-be-released/
We have locked in the release features for V6.00 of our LF+ platform. Within the next day or so we will make available a beta release. The existing editor will NOT inform customers of the new version of either the editor or the firmware. You will need to download the editor and firmware from our downloads page. Once we remove V6.x from beta, the older editor (or beta editor) will automatically detect the production releases and inform you.
v6.00 BETA FIRMWARE
-------------------
---------------------------
- NOTE TO AXE-FX III USERS:
---------------------------
- Please note that the AXE-FX III engine is automated. This is unlike your probable experience with AXE-FX/AXE-FX II setup in the LF+. All Sync'd effects in an IA-Slot are automated. There is NO reason to enter programming commands. If you are migrating from AXE-FX I/II type devices, then do the following to your programming:
1. For each sync'd IA-Slot, change the SYNC Device to AXE-FX III. Then select the Effect from the Effect List. Notice you can assign Effects, SCENE1-8 control, TAP-TEMPO and TUNER. NO PROGRAMMING is needed once these options are selected.
2. If you change an AXE-FX I/II sync of SCENE1 - SCENE8, remove any midi commands, external sync commands, or grouping of those IA-Slots. The LF+ will handle everything automatically. It will rename those scenes in real-time as well as you change presets. No programming is required from you.
3. No G-Tuner command is needed unless you don't sync an IA-Slot to TUNER from the Effect Drop Down List.
4. Load the sample AXE-FX III programming from the editor's [FILE] menu. This will create a near 100% complete programming template for you to look at and modify as you wish. It will sync and work as is with no further programming.
v6.00 System Updates:
---------------------------
NEW: Internal Processing Engine V6
NEW: Expander engine updated for new devices coming out. Faster expander syncing.
NEW: KEMPER KPA engine : See below for new firmware features
NEW: AXE-FX III engine : See below for new firmware features
FIX: Programming Commands : [Button Start Value] command allows full virtual button range
FIX: Programming Commands : [AUTO TAP TEMPO] Timing engine is now accurate to sub-millisecond in all cases
MOD: Programming Commands : [AUTO TAP TEMPO] Tempo speed that is out of the range of (49bpm - 300bpm)(200ms - 1224ms) will no longer default to 100bpm. It will not ignore now.
FIX: Programming Commands : [Sysex Send] was able to transmit bad data if starting message didn't begin with valid MIDI value
FIX: IA-Slot : TYPE [Tap-Tempo] Timing engine is now accurate to 1 millisecond
FIX: IA-Slot : SYNC DEVICE: AXE-FX II with SYNC EFFECT set to X/Y State. Not processed properly under certain circumstances
MOD: Tap-Tempo : Valid range extended [50bpm (1200ms)] -> [300bpm (200ms)] note: below 48bpm will reset the LF+ BPM calculator (assume tapping has stopped).
MOD: Internal updates : 82 internal fixes/modifications/enhancements/performance boosts.
v6.00 AXE-FX III related notes:
---------------------------
NEW: Smart Sync: The LF+ will automatically control the AXE-FX III with no additional programming once you select an Effect to Sync
NEW: SCENE NAME DISPLAY will automatically display with the Main Preset Name if the Global Settings: [PRESET NAME SOURCE] is set to AXE-FX
NEW: IA-Slot - SYNC EFFECT: [TUNER] If SYNC'd to EFFECT 'TUNER' for AXE-FX III, it will automatically handle all programming. Leave the IA-Slot command programming Empty
NEW: IA-Slot - SYNC EFFECT: [TAP-TEMPO] if SYNC'd to EFFECT 'TAP TEMPO' for AXE-FX III, it will automatically handle all programming. Leave the IA-Slot command programming Empty
NEW: IA-Slot - SYNC EFFECT: [SCENE 1]->[SCENE 8] if set to sync with a SCENE, it will automatically handle all programming/sync and rename the IA-Slot in real-time. Leave command programming Empty
NEW: IA-Slot - SYNC EFFECT: [LOOP <functions>] the LF+ will automatically handle all programming/sync in real-time. Leave the command programming Empty
NEW: IA-Slot - SYNC EFFECT TYPE: Either control the bypass state of the chosen Effect, or control/display the CHANNEL of the chosen effect.
NEW: Programming Command: [CHANGE EXT DEVICE CHANNEL] If IA-Slot is sync'd to an AXE-FX III Effect w/ TYPE CHANNEL STATE, this command will allow the selection of a specific channel.
NEW: Programming Command: [CHANGE EXT DEVICE CHANNEL] can be used in IA-SLOT programming using TYPE: QUICKTAP, STOMP, or STEP
NEW: IA-Slot - SYNC EFFECT display: All Sync'd effects will display the current CHANNEL on the second line of button LCD when not using [2 function display] global setting.
NEW: IA-Slot - SYNC EFFECT display: All Sync'd SCENE effects will automatically update the displayed names of scenes. no programming is required other then selecting the Sync Effect desired.
NEW: EXPRESSION PEDAL HEEL/TOE IA-Slot triggering. Heel and Toe triggers for each Expression pedal can now include IA-Slot types: STOMP, QUICK-Tap and Tap-Tempo. Momentary and STEP IA-Slots are not allowed. Sync'd IA-Slots will not process as sync'd slots to avoid midi loops that can be caused by certain external effects devices.
-----------------
EDITOR V6.00
-----------------
NEW: File Menu->Load Special Programming->Kemper Remote Control Emulation added
NEW: File Menu->Load Special Programming->AXE-FX III
FIX: File open crash when certain folder(s) doesn't exist
FIX: Global Menu on LF+ corrections (IA-Slot Sync ID, Effect Names)
FIX: Option / Preference Screen : User and Backup directory issues (not saving properly, crashing when changed or directory is removed)
FIX: Loading a programming file now imports song labels under all circumstances when a song (range) is selected
MOD: Device Definitions allow import/export of multiple devices at one time
MOD: Connection engine on Windows OS updated. Will help with "Failed to Send" errors
MOD: Will Load editor and open the last active editor window
MOD: default set to not Auto-Connect
MOD: default set to not Auto-Sync
MOD: default set to Remember Last Connection Settings
MOD: default set to Help Connection issues
MOD: Editor not compatible with V2.00 or lower of firmware
MOD: Updated with all V6.00 firmware features
MOD: Many internal updates
FIX: Presets - Right-Click now available on all toggle parameters for multi-preset quick programming

v6.00 BETA FIRMWARE
-------------------
- RECOMMENDED UPGRADE PROCESS from firmware v5.x or below:
1. Use currently installed editor to load firmware V6.00+
2. Close the editor and uninstall.
3. Install V6.00+ of the editor
4. Upon connecting to a LF+ that was updated to V6.x for the first time, the editor should automatically detect such event and install INTERNAL DATA UPDATE.
5. If you did not see the message in #4 above, you can manually do this process. Only do it once. Go to [HARDWARE] menu, and select the option [SPECIAL - UPDATE INTERNAL DATA]
