SEND SYSTEM ROM
This utility allows you to back up your operating system via Sysex data. This screen
displays the prompt: “Press Enter to send Prog Data”. The boot software version will be
displayed on the bottom line. Before you press enter, be sure the remote device is
enabled to receive the data. Pressing ENTER will start the export. We recommend
backing up the operating system before upgrading to a new version of software.
SEND BOOT SYSTEM

receive the data. Pressing ENTER will start the export.
RECEIVE UPDATE
This utility is used to upgrade the system software. Updates will be available from time to
time on our website, www.moogmusic.com in the Support section. To take advantage
of this feature requires the following:
- A computer with internet access and MIDI interface.
- MIDI Software capable of sending a generic Sysex bank file (.syx) or Standard MIDI file
(.mid)
Many sequencers are capable of opening Sysex files and sending Sysex data. If you do
not own one of these, check out “MIDI-OX”, a MIDI utility software for PC available online
at www.midiox.com. For Mac, there is a program called “Sysex” that provides the same
function.
If you do not own a computer, special arrangements will need to be made for software
upgrades. Please contact [email protected].
When entering the RECEIVE UPDATE screen, the screen will ask if you are sure you want
to upgrade the software. Selecting YES will initialize the memory and enable the
Voyager to receive the Sysex data containing the new Operating System software.
