Hello,

 

I've used (but not very often) the MIDIOX program (freeware). You can
download it from its website.

With midiox, you just have to open the sysex file and send it to the
keyboard (send button)

Of course, you must first connect  a cable between the PC midi out to the
VFX midi in.

 

I really don't know how to do it easily if you don't have a PC.

 

Cheers

 

Alfons

Yes, MIDIOX works fine.
You can also try SOUNDLIB (I believe it's still on the file section of the group) which is a great program to manage your sound library and compile whole banks.
Soundlib's also able to download, and upload, banks and single patches; works on most systems.
To install Soundlib on XP just choose a short install path, like C:\SOUNDLIB to make it work.

SysEx Librarian from www.snoize.com has been working for me to transfer dumps back and forth. I've not tried single patches, though, just banks. It does handle the whoe shebang (sequences, patches, etc. in a lump) just fine.
