Dear John --

Thank you for the tip.

I did as you recommended, more or less, as follows.

I went to Bar 1, I right-clicked, then I choose...
> Bar Settings,
> Patch Changes At This Bar,
> Melody,
> 12 Vibes
> OK

And that works for me as a workaround.

The melody patch is still set automatically to "5 Electric Piano" at the moment that I press "Play", and then the song starts generating the tracks, then when it actually starts to play though the speakers, the melody patch is set to "5 Vibes" (and stays that way for the whole song), which is exactly what I want.

That works for now and this is the only tune that I need this for right now.

I would still like to know why the auto-set-melody-patch-at-play is happening.

I would still like to know how to change the auto-set-melody-patch-at-play setting.

But, until some expert explains this, the workaround is fine.

Thanks.
