Just got a second hand Roland FR-8XB with system version 2.01. I'can I update directly to ver. 2.53.

Hello,
yes you can update directly to version 2.53.
check that your sub CPU is already in version 1.05

Thanks. How do I check the sub CPU version?
I am new to the FR8X.

I highly suggest that you take a couple hours and read through the free to download PDF manual from Roland, it will have the answer to that question for you as well as the coming 50-100 questions that all new users have at the start.

There is good information when you Start/Boot your 8X. The Version No. you have will show on one of the opening "screens". I believe it is the 2nd screen. It's at the bottom. The screens flash quick, but you will get it -- it may take a couple of "Start Ups".

The version nummer is 2.01.077
