I'm sure this information is available somewhere here, but I poked around and am still uncertain.

Could someone clarify for me the order for installing the following:

    GT-1000 Driver (Ver 1.1.0 for Win 7)
    GT-1000 System Program (Ver 3.20 appears to be the newest)
    Tone Studio for GT-1000 (V 3.20)
    Anything else I'm forgetting?

I thought that I could go ahead and install the driver in advance of receiving the GT1000, but I see that the procedure requires that the device be plugged in to complete the install.  This is a (very) used unit, so I'm assuming it will not have the latest version installed on it.  Can the new 3.20 driver be installed first, before updating the GT?

Thanks!

The GT firmware update is independent of the USB driver (not required in update mode) as the GT-1000 is "seen" as a USB memory device for the update file to be placed into.

So I would
1: update GT-1000 firmware
2: install USB driver, on Windows this should be automatic, but on both Windows and Mac might require some permission acknowledgment in the Security and Privacy settings (Windows = enable 'mic' permissions for driver to work).
3: install Tone Studio
Free "GR-55 FloorBoard" editor software from https://sourceforge.net/projects/grfloorboard/
