 Yes, does indeed work - tested using an Alesis MMT-8 sequencer
 dumping it's memory via midi ... and a Korg N1 synth dumping all
 it's programs settings etc.  All restores without any problems.

 Thanks to all who replied!   I should have though of that myself,
 but well... I really didn't think it was that easy.

 I'll probably knock up a script to make the whole process more
 user-friendly, and provide some sort of menus for dumping/
 restoring data...


Thanks again!
