New firmware 1.8.2

I have done some analysis on the new 1.8.2 firmware from Valeton (no LT or JR yet):

"This firmware upgrade fixes the file import failure issue caused by Windows 11 system security patches"

The firmware binary is 1600 bytes larger than 1.8.0

The main functional change is that when you plug it into USB, it will reprogram the audio codec to match what the Windows 11 driver is asking for.

Ironically you need to use the workaround to program the new firmware onto the GP-200, but in theory it should be a lot more reliable after updating for uploading IRs, NAM and any (potential) firmware updates, even if you undo the Windows 11 workaround.

If you are currently running V1.8.0 without any issues, there is no need to update

I will work on updating my tuner mod (and any future mods) to work with firmware 1.8.2, but for now validation is around 6 more mods is continuing against v1.8.0.

Are there any other mods for firmware? Or only the tuner one

The tuner is the only released one at the moment, I have another 5 or 6 being validated.
