firmware update problems

Hey lovers,

When I try to update the firmware on my MP-201 (1.00->1.01) the pedal doesn’t respond. I’ve tried with 3 usb cables, 3 computers (2 pcs, 1 mac) and get the same response every time - nothing. The MIDI light on the MP-201 lights up when my sysex software is sending, but never displays the following :

“The MP-201 should display a “Sysex Firmware” message, showing first Test 1, then Test 2, followed by Stage 1 and Stage 2.” (readme)

Anyone else had have issues updating?

so i did a bulk dump, reset the mp-201 to factory default, and it took the firmware just fine. hope this helps anyone else who has an issue.
