The labels or replacement top panels aren't yet for sale. I said that in the video so I wouldn't have to make a second video when they are ready. When they're ready, the information will be in the Panel Settings > Sequencer page, at the top.

Just popping in after being away from the linnstrument for awhile to offer a huge thank you to Roger and Geert for the new firmware. The velocity, which I'd actually just stopped using as a parameter since even with previous improvements I could not get the subtlety I needed, is so enormously improved that it seems like a miracle. Tweaking it based on Pianoteq - incredibly challenging, I know - was genius. The velocity is never going to have the same feeling of directness that one gets from a weighted keyboard, but it is now not only usable but becomes natural when using the linnstrument as the front end for my experimental "invisible instrument" pieces. And thank you for really listening to your users and caring about issues like this that are only a huge deal for some of them. I haven't even gotten to the other new features, but on responsiveness alone I am just floored. Bravo, a thousand times over!

Thanks, Bruce. I'm afraid the credit for the velocity improvement goes entirely to Geert, who is the greatest and most creative software engineer I've ever worked with. His new velocity algorithm was a complete surprise to me. One morning I woke up to find his email with the improved code. The idea had come to him after playing LinnStrument with PianoTeq. He wanted it to be better, focused on the problem and he found a better way.
