Hi!

As the OS upgrade is a midi file, i just used the XG Edit program that the editor works with.
Although i don't normally use XG Edit as my sequencer, it's pretty much the same sort of thing as all the others and 
seems easy to work with.

I basically set up the AN200 to recieve the files (the FAQ tells you how to do all this, i think you need to hold down 
some buttons when turning it on) and loaded the midi file into XG Edit.

Once you press PLAY in the program, it starts to download the upgrade into the machine. Though right at the start you'll
see the AN200 counting up on the display and it will stop after it gets to a point. This is where i got confused and thought it 
had failed. Just leave it running for a few minutes and the counting will begin again.

I think the first part of the midi file contains the basic boot information or a header of some kind and the AN200 needs to think
about it for a while after it recieves it before continuing!

Hope this helps. It took me a while to realise that you have to leave it for quite a few minutes even though it looks like it's hung-up
or crashed.

  Thanx for Reply Mark
  What tool (Midiplayer) does you use for the Update ? What does you mean 
  with 
  " Especially at the beginning of the download " ?? the Midiplayer ??

  and if i fail updating, can i do it again, or will it break after a 
  failure and going to death. Ok i know as a german my english is not 
  very good.
