SOUL has been developed to improve LBT FLAO performance reducing detector noiseand increas- ing wavefront sampling and correction frame rate, but an accurate optimization of the control system is required to fully exploit its potential. Thus, an online modal control optimization has been designed and implemented considering the peculiarities of the Pyramid Wavefront Sensor. We will describe the method used with particular attention to the aspect related to the Pyramid WFS and report laboratory and on-sky results from the commisioning of SOUL.
