Hi everyone! Is there a reason why you can't save the P3 settings using the P3 Utility, like we do in the K3 Utility?
Also, not sure if anyone saw this but would it be possible to keep the last used label highlighted on the screen? When you press any of the FN* buttons - to keep the label lit up on screen? Makes it a lot easier to see what the current setting is, especially if its being used for the SPAN. Thanks!
