Important note
This release is meant to be used only with devices whose Overbridge mode does not include class compliant USB MIDI. Devices designed for Overbridge 2.13 or later will require a later version of Overwitch than 1.2. It is recommended to upgrade all the devices to their last firmware; therefore, this version is released for historical purposes and is not supported.
