  Reduced brightness of the green LED when you are connected.

  If you ordered a left-handed jamstik+ from us, we flipped the trigger values in software and play-tested to ensure consistency.

  A great feature that allows you to program Tap Mode to a specific button while holding it down. An office favorite is to hook it up to the mute button - easily switch in between styles while continuing to play!
• Added (Beta) Hammer-On in the settings menu
  Our first installment of a Hammer-On experience besides Tap Mode. Stay tuned for new updates as this is still in beta-development!
• Added Maximum Velocity in the settings menu
  Some compatible apps attach specific samples to notes with 127 velocity and we have given you a setting to change that if desired.

  Incrementally change each strings tuning by to whatever notes you want! (+1/-1 = half-step/semi-tone)

Also don't forget with if you ever want to bring back your jamstik+ to the factory defaults just go into Settings > Reset to Defaults and re-boot the jamstik, or Hold down the Power Button for about 30 seconds until you see a flashing red light.
