The changes made using the Tracks window are stored in the SEQ file and work differently than when they are inserted into the Event List.

If the settings are stored in the seq file, they are applied when the file is opened, and depending on situation, maybe checked again later.

If they are entered in the Event list they get sent every time the file plays and the song gets to the point where the Event was inserted.

In other words, the Event list sends the message 'manually' when you want it to be sent, every time.
You could change the Track setting and when you hit Play the Event List entry (when triggered) will over-ride it.
That's why it's the preferred method here quite often.

I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
