I suggest you use the multipart midi file OS

Power up the A6 holding down soft button 7 (under the display)
It will prompt you etc etc, follow the prompts

Then play each of the OS parts in the correct order
The display on the A6 will increment, when finished the A6 will then
burn it to flash. Works great for me in Logic.
