Can live export Sysex files? I'm trying to update the firmware for my ion synth, but Live cant see the .syx file in its browser?

Any help?

Thanks.

wow im surprised im the first to reply to this. I guess most of everyone else is a softhead.

well, the answer is unfortunate, that live does not even have the ability to use sysex at all. Hopefully soon they will incorporate this, and also soon they will incorporate multiple sync outputs too!

sorry forgot to add...youll have to use a daw like cubase or even try downloading a free midi app that can send sysex files to update your firmware

There is a free app called midi-ox. It will do the trick

Or use send SX program you can find in this link: http://alesis.com/downloads/software/Ion/
