Future Impact now available!! WAS: deep impact reissue!!! interested?

Peter summarized on FB very well all features of the new release that is available immediately:
A new FI update (v3.04) has just been released. The changes are as follows:
Added MIDI control of the dry instrument volume via CC92.
Fixed a tuner bug where the LFO to VCO would cause the tuner reference pitch to fluctuate.
De-zippered the INSTR signal in the main mixer so there are fewer artefacts when modulating it using flexis.
I’ve incorporated a few of the suggestions made by users to make portions of the manual clearer, notably the data digit and boot menu procedure.
You can download the new firmware file and manual here:
http://pandamidi.com/support
Note, the web-updater tool hasn’t yet been fed the latest version. A refreshed editor will come later which embeds the latest manual.
 
You can take the full library from the last version and convert it to the new version if you like those sounds. There are a handful of old sounds I'm still using, but the new sounds are far superior.
You can also load the v2 files without converting them.

Furthermore, the v2 library on the panda site has already been converted to the v3 format.

Recently did the update to V3 and since then I have noticed that my pedal pops when you turn it on or off. Not sure if it's related to the update at all. There's an audible click/pop that I can hear acoustically in the room when you plug the pedal in, and then every time you press the on/off switch there is the same acoustically audible click/pop. Anybody else have this issue?
