UPDATE 3/22/2023: 5.0.1 has been released, details below
I've just uploaded version 5.0. This sounds like a big deal, but it's actually a minor release. I ran out of single digit minor release numbers, so I had to move up to 5.0.0 to keep my numbering scheme intact. Sorry for any disappointment for anyone looking for major improvements!
FEATURES:
PLEASE DON'T DO A MAJOR FIRMWARE UPDATE RIGHT BEFORE YOUR BIG GIG!

FEATURES:
- New device support:
- Eventide H90
- Jet Lamb, Lion and Revelation
- Kernom Ridge
- Meris LVX
- Added Wrap Banks setting which, when enabled, allows Bank Up / Bank Down to wrap around from the first bank or song to the last bank or song. (Or vice-versa). Keeping this setting turned off works as it did in the past, where you can't Bank Up past the last bank/song or Bank Down past the first bank/song.
- Changed how special text is appended to buttons (PC number in Device PC -/+ buttons, effect block types in Kemper, etc.) Now, special text is given priority so that it can't get cut off if your button name is too long.
- Fixed a bug that caused IA Cycle buttons with CC Momentary actions to malfunction
- Added some sanity checking and protection code to MIDI bank handling
- Fixed the CC list for Eventide H90
- Fixed default tap tempo CCs for some Strymon pedals
- Enabled scrolling with up/down arrows in the Mastermind editor song and setlist lists
- Extra data (device PC info, KPA effect names) is now stripped from button names before transferring to the editor
- IA Store now stores tempo correctly in the current song or preset based on the current settings
- Show Tempo no longer interferes with bank selection
- Fixed some weird interactions between bank selection, alternate presets and page changes
