I did as you said and it worked fine. I did get 2 different instruments. I understand now what you mean by "hard writing" a track. It appears that it locks in that instrument based on the first event.

However, I choose my patches for tracks from the Juno synthesizer, rather than the limited patches in the program change in PT. The patch I want to use from the Juno is 92 (bells)

I do have a "performance mode" button. As I stated earlier, I cannot choose the patch I want to use. There is a limited selection in performance mode.

I'll keep working at it.

Thanks again for the continued assistance.
