Alesis ION: How do I save patches/programs using SYSEX?

Just hit the record button on a MIDI track on Sonar, assuming that the Ion is hooked up to your MIDI interface (if you don't have one; E-mu Xmidi 1x1).

 

Make sure any Sysex message filters are switched off. When Sonar is recording, perform a patch dump or bank dump on the Ion; the manual tells you how to do that. I would tell you but I no longer own an Ion and I've forgotten.

 

Save the result as a plain MIDI file; it contains all the System Exclusive information of the patches. When you play it back, the Ion loads the patches automatically.
