- Added "Use Song Index" MIDI setting, which controls whether an incoming MIDI bank number selects a song by its number, or whether it selects by index (1st song in the setlist, 2nd song in the setlist, etc.)
- Added "Clock Pulse Limit" MIDI setting, which causes the Mastermind to send only a specific number of MIDI clock pulses each time the tempo changes. This makes it work effectively like tap tempo, just much faster. Setting this to 0 keeps the default behavior (continuously send clock pulses).
- Added special value "Preset" to the System / Page action. This shows the button page indicated by the currently loaded preset.
- Added special value "Preset" to the PC action. This sends the PC stored in the current preset for the selected device.

- Fixed a bug that caused the LEDs not to update when dismissing the tuner screen
- Fixed issues in the setup menus relating to the "clear" button
- Fixed a bug in the PC Edit menu that caused it to not calculate presets and banks correctly

- Fixed a bug in the System / Page "preset" special value
