first of all, sorry for my english...
Hans : you suggest to use midiox, where can i find the first steps

For your information, i buy the Swissonic MIDI-USB 1X1 - USB MIDI
interface in order to communicate whith my SD1...

UNO...
Peace

Any
USB MIDI interface will work. Try to go step by step.
-
install midiox
- plug
in your interface
- if
necessary, install the drivers provided for your interface (ok, your OS must be
supported)
- the
Swissonic must show up in the midiox interface list
When
you've come that far take your SD
-
connect your SD to the Swissonic: midi-in to midi-out and vice
versa
- open
the midiox midi monitor
- you
should now see the midi messages coming in when you're pressing keys and
play along
Ok?
Then sending sysex files should work as well:
-
enable sysex messages in the SD system midi menu!!
- open
the midiox sysex window, load a .syx or a .syx
and send it to the interface connected with the VFX
A bank
goes to the internal ram replacing the old one, a single patch goes to
the edit buffer from where you can store it to the internal
ram.
Oh,
and there's a manual for both the SD and midiox.
I hope
that helps.
