it will work

just use a editor as long as you set up the usb midi device properly

and have the editor set to the correct channels of the synth there should be no problem dumping single patches or banks to the vfx-sd

there has never been a program that converts sysex to floppy disk format its to difficult in transfer routines as both are totally different formats

its the same for any synth

ones midi protocol language and the other is processor and floppy control language of the instrument os

and seeing as every os is totally different and every ones disk format is different and how they impliment the data to disk is different to every machine to do a conversion software would be a coders nightmare thats why it has never been done and never will

when its easy just to dumpthe sysex to the synth
