Global Function Preset Changes
Alternate Mode will soon be releasing its KATALIZER Software, containing the world's most powerful looper and

overdubbing. MIDI Merge is set to off, and all note numbers coming from all 16 MIDI channels are pre-routed to
the internal sound card. When reinitializing the malletKAT, the malletKAT now defaults to USER Kits.
Version 8 now ships with a USB to MIDI Cable Standard.

EXTERNAL only. This allows for easy control to outside sound sources like the iPAD, computer, etc.

User Kits can now be optionally pre programmed for Ketron SD 1000.
