Any value in switching over to 1.0.12? 1.0.10 allowed a smooth install on OS 10.5.8, and aside from the missing sound file, life is good.

Hi prstorms,Any value in switching over to 1.0.12? 1.0.10 allowed a smooth install on OS 10.5.8, and aside from the missing sound file, life is good.
If you read the release notes, there are some bug fixes. Some for things I did notice like difficulting changing scales and improvements to scroll buttons, etc...
I will say to install over the old version. Any user setups will be preserved. The Alpha does not open as the default setup though, so you have to choose it after it starts.
Not sure if there is a way to pick the default loaded setup.
I might be wrong, but if you save the alpha setup as user1, next time you run EigenD, it will default to that user1 setting on startup. It seems to work that way for my Pico.
[Edit] Thanks for the clarification below gbevin
What I found is that it automatically loads the last setup you loaded in the last run of EigenD. So just saving as user1 isn't sufficient, you have to load it also ... this implies that you first load another setup and then user1, otherwise it doesn't execute the load since it's already the active setup.
HTH,

Hi prstorms,
It is of course up to you whether you decide to update to the latest version of EigenD (1.0.12 at time of writing).
The bug fixes of note are: -
* The scroll keys have been redesigned
* Mac OS X Tiger (10.4.x) installation problems have been fixed
Please note that you will need to do a full install to correct Tiger installation problems.

I did the 1.0.12 upgrade, which seems to have eliminated the Alchemy issue (maybe it was just another run at an install that fixed it). I do have a question, though... do I turn on the hardware BEFORE starting the software, or after? My habit has been to turn on the hardware, then fire up EigenD. I've noticed EigenD freezing on startup, and can often resolve that by recycling the hardware (flipping the thing off, then on). Is there a recommended procedure?
Thanks!
Pat
Hi prstorms,
It should not make any difference whether you turn on the hardware before or after starting the software running - I also habitually turn on the hardware before starting EigenD, but there is no reason why you shouldn't start EigenD and then turn on your base station.
I hope that helps,
