Boss VF-1 Effect Processor

Hey Ryan, Jay

had exactly the same problem. Bought the VF-1 running Firmware 1.1
Upgraded to 1.13 and all works perfect.
Seems to be a difference in SysEx Block numbers in older firmware.

Cheers
Jeremi

I was really perplexed but I thought about the numbers you're getting and I have a hunch I know what's going on.  I'm assuming you're not using firmware v.1.12, correct?  Please check that out and let me know.  If you're not, this part of my app won't work until you upgrade to that version.  That's the problem with developing for a moving target - you pretty much can't.  I developed to support 1.12 because that's what I have, and I had no desire to write support for the idiosyncrasies of different firmwares and then constantly flash my unit to different versions to test each release of my app.  No thanks!
