+    * Fixed critcal rig control bug
+    * Fixed lagging with MIDI input while in Pedal Board mode. (May have wrecked led indicators in the process though)
+    * Relays can now be labeled and polarity set from the PB Editor software
+    * Reduced max cuelists to 20
+    * Added MIDI as AIN feature - allows a recieved CC to be translated as if it were an analogue input
+    * Added PedalSwap feature - temporarily change the settings of expression pedals
  * 2.5beta3
     * Fixed critcal analogue input bug

 The shift register of the 1st digit (the one's display) must be defined in pbx_config.h \\
 The second digit (ten's) will be automatically assigned to the next shift register.
+If only 1 digit is used, and bank goes higher than 9. The dot will light up to let you know that '0' is actually 10, '1' is actually 11, etc \\
 In place of LED digits. A 2x20 LCD Display can be used (instead of 2x16). The last 4 charcters of each line are used for bank display. This will only happen when DIGITS_CONNECTED = 0 in pbx_config.h.
