Updation ION Operating Question

Updation ION Operating Question

2011-08-16 by Gregory

Hi,

I've recently purchased an Alesis ION and really like this instrument.

I have also discovered that the synth has the original operating system installed and would like to update it to the most current. 

I am not all that good with computers and need assistance in doing this. On researching this topic I've found that I need a DAW and a MIDI connection cable.

I have both REAPER and Boomsendsx systems on my computer [2003 Dell with XP] and an Alesis USB / MIDI converter cable. I've tried to do the download but so far nothing seems to work. Is there anyone out there that can walk me through this process from start to finish? Or is there a youtube type video I can watch showing how I can do this?

Thanks in advance,

Greg

BTW, I use the name Conn-Man as I used to play Conn organs and am very fond of them
