Re: Updating from v1.0 to (US) v1.2

So - for future reference - the v1.2 firmware update will NOT change any of your user presets. Confirmed on both my VF-1 units. 

Also the v1.3 firmware addressed an issue where the volume could possibly increase when switching to a Patch that utilizes the Vocal Multi algorithm. This info comes from Roland USA - but you can only find the v1.3 on the roland.de site - unless someone uploaded it here. 

There you go.

I was wondering if your presets/patches got overwritten or otherwise messed with after you did the update to v1.2 from 1.x?
