KO II sampler gets USB audio, lo-fi modes, and arpeggiator in OS 2.5

Teenage Engineering's KO II sampler receives OS 2.5 with USB audio support, selectable sample rates (including 32 kHz and 26 kHz for lo-fi), sample reverse, an arpeggiator, and equal-length autochopping, plus a longer 40-second mono sampling window. The update also improves time-stretching, adds new scales and per-pad time shifting, and fixes bugs; it’s also available for the Riddim, while the EP-1320 Medieval’s update is USB-audio-only.
