-
Able to select language upon factory reset (and the first boot up).
-
While using user patch bank, octave and key of each patch becomes editable on R1.
-
New Breath MIDI message options (CC 11, after touch).
-
Brand new fingering modes: EVI+, Whistle+.
-
Upgrade to 20 slots of custom fingerings.
-
Re-arranged order of system patch bank.
-
Adjusted levels of volume.

Those updates are part of the V1.7 firmware.
Some slight adjustments were also made with the Sound Bank (V2.4):
-
Soprano Sax - enhanced the high end clarity.
-
Guzheng - added tremolo as an articulation in Sound 1, which can be triggered by tonguing (like other sounds that have such mechanism).
