The manual does not indicate how to check which OS version your 307 uses, but it's easy to do:
With your 307 turned off, simultaneously hold the [SONG] + [SYSTEM] + [BPM] buttons. Then power up while holding them, and in a few moments the screen will reveal your OS version.
To the best of my knowledge, the latest version is OS 1.03.
NOTE: I recently discovered that my 307 runs OS 1.02. I bought my 307 used, and so far I have not found 1.03 online...Roland probably does not provide it anymore. Consequently, readers of this blog should be aware of two things:
1. Comments I post will reflect my experiences with OS 1.02. If you run version 1.03, there will probably be occasional differences.
2. If anyone knows where to find OS 1.03 online, please contact me and I will post on the topic, along with download instructions.
UPDATE: To find OS 1.03 online, see my post here. (As of April 2010 I have not updated my OS yet however.)

Not to sound flippant, but how did you discover there's a version 1.03 of the OS? I have 1.02 myself, so I can't help with an update, but I'm now curious myself!

No worries. I've seen other 307s with OS 1.03. Once I get my hands on software that I can dump my pattern files into, I'll probably experiment with loading 1.03 directly from one of these other machines. For a future post...
