Well, yes and no.  It *does* verify the integrity of the data you are
sending it, by using checksums within the data blocks being sent.

However, if you are expecting it to compare the data against that
which is stored in the MD already, no, this does not occur.  That
would be a data comparison as opposed to a Sysex dump verification...

However, now that you bring this point up, it makes me think that such
a feature would be a very nice addition to an MD editor.  Hmmm.... ;-)
