New features in Beta 4.2
* Avoid attempting to reload empty patches, this should makes switching to a bank that is not full faster.
* Fixed a problem with the "LED" window that it wouldn't show up if you were not in dynamic rescale mode.

New features in Beta 4.1
* Fixed digital readout timing.
* Reversed Envelope Shape CC - This was a change for 1.3.7 that makes editing of Envelope Shape reversed on older firmwares.

New features in Beta 4
* A display showing parameter values for parameters edited or rolled over. This could affect performance so there is a setting to turn it off.
* Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V can be used for copy/paste.
* Echo MIDI menu option for debugging. Not sure I will keep this one. Probably either expand on it or remove it. Make your case.
