I'd like to know is it possible to send syses message out from Max to a keyboard in order to get syses message in containing all preset names and numberings? Thanks!

There is a max object called "sxformat" which you can use to send sysex messages to a midi device. Send the output from that to a "midiout" object and use the "midiin" object to see whats returned.

Thanks for reply. I've tried that and it works on the way out but not on the way back in. I'm very limited with midi knowledge within Max so must be that I can't put the patch together in a proper way.

I would be very grateful if someone could help me out with putting the example patch together on how to send bulk dump message to a device in order to transmit data into Max and than i'll use data list for my Yamaha FS1R to do proper numberings.

Try wiring up the output of the midiin object to a print object and see what you get in the max window. You should just get a load of numbers. Make sure you send a "Port " message to the midiin device to select the correct midi port. See the midiin help file for more info on that.
