For PC we recommend the freeware software MIDI-OX, for MAC the soft- ware “SYSEX LIBRARIAN”. Adapter Typ: MIDI-TRS-B Proceed as follows: Load the firmware file (e.g. FlameFireV1_0a.syx) onto the computer. Only connect the MIDI input 1 of the module directly to the MIDI out of your computer using a MIDI-TRS-B adapter (avoid detours, e.g.
