The SP2X receives its system updates through MIDI sys-ex (i.e. playing a specified MIDI file containing system exclusive data into its MIDI in port and/or via MIDI-over-USB.) Details on how to update your SP2X system files can be found in the SP2X Musician's Guide in Chapter 6.
Update Requirements / RecommendationsWindows Users:
- Windows XP required for MIDI-over-USB functionality. Alternatively you can simply use traditional MIDI connections to update your OS and not use USB at all.
- (recommended) "SP2Series.inf" XP driver (available on Kurzweil's website). The installation of this driver permits your host DAW to reference the SP2 by name versus a generic, standard driver label.
Mac OSX Users:
- v1.01 of the "Boot Block" (SP2BootV101.mid) is required for USB updating functionality (included in this download). If you are currently running less than v1.01 of the boot block (the boot block version number is displayed on screen upon entering the boot block menu), you must update the boot block via traditional MIDI connections first before you can use USB to update the OS. Alternatively you can simply use traditional MIDI connections to update your OS and not use USB at all.
- NO OSX driver required
Note: We normally recommend doing a Hard Reset after performing an upgrade. Therefore, if you have any user created Programs or Setups, you should do a system exclusive back up dump of the memory before updating. Please read "Dumping Objects" on page 5-4 of the Musician's Guide for more info.
