EXS and the EWI 4000s vyzex patch app

A buddy of mine has a studio and uses Logic. When I told him I bought an EWI 4000S,
he laughed and said 'you?, Mr. Acoustic',
he said bring it all over to his studio and lets hook it up and have some fun,
which we did ... hours and hours

The EWI comes with an app, Vyzex, which is how you make patches to upload to the EWI.

As we were knee deep in him trying to teach me how Logic worked,
and the differences between
an LFO and a UFO .... he noticed that
the EXS portion of Logic Pro has an option to 'open with Vyzex',
which when you do that, up pops the Vyzex app, and you can hear
the sound from Logic, but, you can't work with it or
save the sound into the EWI or Vyzex.

So, are we missing something to save the patch, or does the fact that
EXS opens Vyzex really not mean all that much. As you can probably tell,
I'm pretty new at this....

thanks

If it's just a sysex editor for the EWI as it appears to be, then it has nothing to do with the EXS sampler or audio in general.

I don't know why the app registers itself in Logic, but the EXS is all about playing back sampler instruments, and this has absolutely nothing at all to do with sysex, MIDI or editing the EWI.
