IMPORTANT for Front Panel Users - Layout menu behavior change in 15.04+
Update - 15.05 was released shortly after 15.04. The Layout menu changes affect everything from 15.04 and on until further notice.
15.04 was just released today and it has some cool new updates for us.
One of the changes is something very different with the Front Panel UI, something that hasn’t been changed since the very first Axe-Fx Standard! It is the behavior of the Layout menu.
The Layout menu is where we spend most of our time editing our presets – adding and moving blocks. We also edit the Input Noise Gate as well as Output Level and Balance options in addition to individual Scene levels. All of that stuff is still there, but the Input Gate and Output parameters are no longer the 3rd and 4th Tab/Page in the menu. Now it functions more like Axe-Edit where you actually cursor over to the far left Input Gate block and hit Edit to change the parameters. Similarly you navigate to the far right and cursor over to the Output block to change those parameter. The Layout menu also “wraps around” which helps you get from one side to the other very quickly and easily.
Here is a quote from the official release notes:
And here is a quick video I made just with my iPhone to get this information out quickly:

Moved Noisegate and Main Output edit menus in Layout page. To enter these menus select the “In/Gate” or “Output” blocks in the layout grid and press Edit. The Layout grid now “wraps around” as well.
