System Updates using Novation Components

Novation Components is an online Patch Librarian, which allows you to manage your Patch
library. You can also restore original factory Patches and download new ones as they
become available.
Novation Components will also advise you if your Peak's Operating System is out of date
and will update it for you if necessary.
Full details are available at www.novationmusic.com/register

Patch import via SysEx

It is also possible to import Patch data into Peak via MIDI SysEx messages using
applications such as SysEx Librarian (Mac) or MIDI-OX (Windows). It is important to note
that Patch Banks retain a reference to their original memory location and will be loaded
back into that location on import. Thus any Patches already in those locations will be
overwritten.

Sync values tables
