There isn't any sysex handling of that sort.
Sysex dumps eat memory rapidly, so if I do add this sort of thing, it would
be reading and writing .SYX files to the SD-card or internal flash, rather
than main memory.
That wouldn't make any practical difference to the user - SD-card is much
faster than MIDI.
There is already code for reading and writing Cirklon's own data in .SYX
format, so suppose it should be pretty easy to add a MIDI librarian thing at
some point.

Cheers,
Colin
