Known Bugs
the About SousaFX window shows “0 0” as install date on first boot.
if you reinstantiate an effect after saving its first user preset without rebooting SousaFX, the effect will reload its default preset.
if an FX Bank is set to “bypass when looper’s inactive”, it must be manually unbypassed before saving a main preset.
plugin selectors can only clear plugin slot by manually deleting json file in data folder.
Param Control Logic’s “This control is mapped to the joystick” message won’t update when switching presets. It will update when manually adding and removing connections.
