Still missing:

Added: All new spring and plate reverb

(Is somehow Axl Rose involved? So we keep on waiting with patience... "Patience"? Damned, I knew it...)

so, the last release is still 5.0.3x, right?

thought 5.1.x was to be lifted to release level...guess it'll be this one, uh?

That depends I guess. If new / previously-undetected bugs surface, we may see another beta, logically-thinking...

I was able to download and install using RM. Profiler seems to have updated properly but RM crashed during the process (when profiler went into update mode)..

flcmcya · Feb 17th 2017

Was wondering why my tuner kept popping up!

P3t3rB · Feb 17th 2017

Updated via RM. All went very smoothly. (Mac OS Sierra).

Had to increase brightness on my remote after update. ??

chopsfromhell · Feb 18th 2017

Had to adjust my remote display as well. No big deal. Just freaked me out for a second.

roadrunner · Feb 18th 2017

Same here. Had a WTF moment and then twiddled the brightness knob on the remote. All seems good now.

Eltzejupp · Feb 19th 2017

Have to press the morph button 3 times to assign.
Support ticket is on the way.

Cheers

This has happened to me a couple of times (I think after FW updates, etc.). I think the knob on the remote for the screen is actually a digital pot and not an analog pot, ie the position of the physical knob doesn't necessarily correspond to the brightness of the screen. Other digital items use this type of knob. You might save a preset on a digital device, change presets, then turn the knob, then go back to the last preset, the knob position now will not correspond to the actual parameter, it will be the saved parameter. In the same way, I think the profiler might digitally save the screen contrast, and sometimes during an update, etc, it will be reset to it's default contrast. We then need to fiddle with the knob to get it back to the contrast it was at before. This is just a guess, but based on the behavior, and how it often throws people off (I think the assumption is that it is an analog knob) I bet that is actually what is happening. I only mention my theory because this seems to be very confusing behavior to a lot of us!
