A temporary USB drive representing the CUP-2 will mount on your computer (the drive icon may appear on your Desktop, under "Devices" (Mac) or under "My Computer" (PC))

"Run CUP-2"
- Press the PLAY button once. The screen will display:
"Update Software"

- Press NEXT again.
The screen will display a message telling you to copy the update file ("CP02V222.KUF") to the temporary USB drive mounted on your computer.

KUF v2.21 - 4/2/13
(containing: O/S v2.20; Objects v2.21.0; Boot Loader v1.48)
- Very low velocity playing does not make any sound (better emulating the behavior of a real piano).
- Default left hand split transposition is +12 semitones (1 octave up).
- Program 1 is now "Pro Piano" (new; the previous #1 Grand Piano has been moved to #2)
- Program 2 is now "Grand Piano" (was #1; the previous #2 Bright Piano has been replaced)
- Program 7 is now "Big Pop Piano" (new; the previous #7 Piano+Str has been replaced)
- Program 33 "Chapel Organ" has been updated.
KUF v1.18 - 10/3/11
(containing: O/S v1.16; Objects v1.20; Boot Loader v1.48)
- The default split key has been changed to F#3.
- New Hard reset method: Holding down C8 (key 88) while powering on the unit will automatically do a "hard reset" and reboot. This is an added feature. The old methods still work too.
- "Rec Rhythm: On/Off" function has been added to functions menu. (see included addendum for details).
- When doing Splits and Layers the previously selected parameters - voice, transposition and volume, will be used (remembered from the last time a split or layer was done). These parameters will go back to defaults on power cycle.
- Bugfix - sometimes the sostenuto pedal could be reversed on boot-up. In the earlier version, if you had your foot down on the pedal during boot-up also it would reverse the pedal (not necessarily a bug). None of this happens in the new version.
KUF v1.16 - 2/15/11
