About the OS upgrades and MIDI recieve

He everyone! This is like my second post here, but I didnt introduced myself before. My name is Andrés and I bought a used EBV a few months ago. It is my first Moog synth and Im really happy with it, except 1 thing that IM already trying to fix.

Anyways, it came with version 2.5.

I noticed there is a much newer version which handles much more preset location but its necessary to buy the memory thing.
I tried searching the forum before asking but I didnt find the answer.
My question is, if I upgrade to the last OS, do I need to get the memory card aswell? Or can I install it without having that? If the first thing is true, then which OS could I install?

Depending on that, what type of advantages does installing a newer OS cound bring me? Or where can I find that info? Also, my EBV is serial number EB0067, shall I take that into consideration when deciding which OS can I upgrade to?


My next question concerns recieving presets.
I downloaded several sound banks or individual presets in sysex format.
I have MIDI OX.

I dont know if Im skipping something, but Im not able to load them.
In the manual it says that to recieve a bank you need to go to MASTER, then RECIEVE PRESETS and then when it says SysEx enabled that I could start tranmission, which I do in MIDI OX. In MIDIOX I can see the status green bar moving but nothing seems to happen on the EBV. When I check on different preset locations, no new preset seems to be loaded.

What am I doing wrong? Or is there a way to load a single preset, cause Im not able to find that on the manual.

Well, sorry for acting as an annoying noob and asking so many questions at once!

I found forums to be a great tool and once Im in the poistion to do so, I will also help and participate.

Thanks!!
Andrés

All versions for the keyboard Voyager are running with or without the memory expansion. So version 3.4 is right for your Voyager.

I guess the ID number is not “1” on your Voyager. Please check it (MASTER page SysEx Device ID).
First you should do the update to 3.4 and then you can download the presets.
Have fun,

Oh thats cool! But why should I do the update, what type of benefits could it bring me, or where can I find out about those benefits? also, it wont alter in any way my presets right?

I did check the SysEx ID, it is 1. The function I described before, is only for recieving a whole bank or it works also for a single preset?

May thanks for the help!
