How to update the Korg SV-2

Download the SV-2 Operating System zip from Korg and unzip it. Connect the SV-2 to the computer with a USB cable, hold FAVORITE 1 and FAVORITE 8 while turning it on, and release them when they flash; after a few seconds FAVORITE 1 stays lit and the SV-2's internal storage appears on the computer. Copy the operating system .pkg file to the root of that storage, then eject the SV-2 storage safely. When it has disappeared from the computer, press FAVORITE 1: the LEDs around the DRIVE knob show the installation progress. When all FAVORITE buttons flash, turn the SV-2 off and on again (the first start can take a few minutes). Do not switch it off during the update.

Just for reference. For complete and up-to-date instructions, always refer to the manufacturer's official firmware page.
