APENDIX A 

History of Concerto 
Software Upgrades. 

Note: from time to time we have added and will continue to add features to the Concerto – below 
is a list of past releases and the features that have been added – note all these features are in your 
new Concerto DA-250.  Please feel free to contact us about new updates from time to time. 

Version 1.07 New Release 

Version 1.07 provides several fixes as well as allows the Concerto to be compatible 

between sound engines including the new DREAM sound engine. 
 
Also version 1.07 allows the pedal feature of both sequences UP and DOWN of 
Song Registers.  You will find that now the Right butterfly switch on the 

Expression Pedal advances the Song Registers while the left butterfly switch 

decrements the Song Register to the previous Register. 
 
If you require STOP/START to be on the floor with version 1.07 then an optional 

footswitch is available.  Please contact your dealer or Accordions International

. 

 

Version 1.10c Release 

Version 1.10c incorporates all previous upgrades including version 1.07 and 

provides two new features to the Concerto.  The first is UP and DOWN volume 
of the Section Buttons (Bass, Solo, ORCH 1, etc.) has been changed.  Now when 

the volume reaches the lowest or highest level it stops at either 0 or 63 and does 

not wrap around and cycle again. Also, the GS Bank Select is now implemented 

on the Footswitch programs.
