So i finally done it. jumped from my good old reliable v6 to latest v7.3.2 (running Kemper non-powered rack)
Findings during the first half-hour:
-First boot all my presets and performances rendered silent. No obvious values changed. Another reboot appeared to sort this.
-Second boot. my performance corrupted. each slot was the default "crunch" preset
-Second boot up; the boot-up progress bar only reaches about 10% of the way across the screen (subsequent boots this appeared working again)
-Power on / boot progress appears at least 5 seconds longer.
- A few nasty pops and cracks during early boot up stage
-All performances appear to have the "E"on the far right of the display (thought this meant "edited", in which case it shouldn't be there?) All sections are UNLOCKED.
-All browser rigs appear to have the "E"on the far right of the display (similar to above but if all modules are unlocked this goes away)
-When i change any stomp type no "E" appears to let me know i've done an "edit"
-holding down tap to engage beat-scanner does engage if done too soon after selecting a new slot in browser mode. you have to wait at OVER 3 seconds before engaging it
-KPA still doesnt remember where it was last time it was powered-up when browsing the rig-pool. (a different rig is found to be current)
some of these may be intentional but would appreciate clarification or explanation where possible.
Still yet to try rig manager....
