Boss VF-1 Effect Processor

Hello all.

I'm looking into upgrading into a separate head and effects unit (I
currently have a Peavey Tubefex).

I have narrowed it down to the VF-1 and the G-major.

Does anyone have info?

Can you bulk dump patches onto a PC via sysex?

Also, does anyone have a VF-1 manual in PDF format?

Thanks
