WING Firmware Version 1.12.6 – Mousetrap (Current Version)

WING Firmware 1.11 – My Take:

Firmware Version 1.11 has three new effects/plugins – Speaker Manager with Multiple Filter types, Dynamic EQ, and Limiter), Velvet Imager FX (Stereo-Enhancer) and Triple Dynamic EQ ( a three-band dynamic EQ.) I can imagine the Speaker Manager being handy for sound reinforcement jobs where you do not have an external processor for the PA, which seems to be more and more common with the proliferation of powered speakers. The three band dynamic EQ is promising as well since the single band dynamic eq available on the channels, while useful, is so limited. A three band dynamic EQ can be a very power tool for sculpting dynamic sources, especially vocals.
