Memory dump?

[dubathonic]

Can anyone recommend a reliable way to dump the patterns saved on a groovebox (MC307) to a computer?

I have a Mac running OS X and have never done this before. Do I need any special software? If so, what works well for this purpose?

Thanks!

I think a sequencer like Cubase or Logic can record SysEx messages, do you have one of these?

I don't yet, but was planning to purchase one if necessary. Just wanted to get a little advice before I spend the cash, as I'm a noob at doing this.

I'm guessing all you'd need is the software and a MIDI-to-USB cable, is that right? Or would the computer need any other upgrades/hardware?

(I've also got two pieces of Korg hardware that can do data dumps, so if this kind of software would work on them as well, it would be ideal.)

if you only want to backup/load dumps, there is a prog SysEx Librarian, it's for mac and i think it's freeware, just google "SysEx Librarian"..... ofcourse you'll need midi interface, but you can find one for cheap.... i think there was one from edirol, but not sure it was the cheapest..... good luck!
