If the EDP is just dumping it's samples as a generic MIDI sample dump, then
you should be able to transfer directly between any devices that support
MIDI sample dump without using a computer as a middleman.

You would just set the EDP to send a MIDI sample dump, and set the other
device to receive a MIDI sample dump, and vice versa when going the other
way. You would have to make sure they were both expecting the MIDI sample
dump on the same MIDI channel. Whether you initiate the sample dump from
the sending or receiving device depends on how the two devices handle it,
some devices can initiate the dump as sender and receiver, some can only
initiate the dump when being the sender.

Check the manuals of both devices for info on how to use MIDI sample dumps
in each device.
