The battery problem is fixed

2008-07-31 by korgpolyex800

Saulius,

thanks for your feedback, it's very much appreciated.

Now that the battery problem is fixed. I have to move on to the
Sequencer bug. I worked on it last night and believe that I may have
fixed it. I am now in the middle of testing to see if it really is
fixed. If the testing is successful then I may have a software update
coming out within a few days.

Mike.
