Those channels are not correct, did you change them? Below see my midi channel setup which is simply the default. There is no reason for you to change that. Bass is 2, Piano 3, Drums 10 and the Soloist is 8 plus the others. You have to set your TX patches for those instruments to match those channels. Yes, you can do it the other way around, match Biab to your TX channels but why? KISS it for now keep the Biab default.

The TX has 32 patch memory locations. Make one of those patches your Soloist for example. Inside that patch you'll be able to set the midi channel to 8. I assume you have the manual for it, it should explain how to do that for each patch you want to use in Biab.

How you use the patch map in Biab is you right click on the instrument name in the top of your screen click Select MIDI Instrument Patch then Select Higher Bank Patch (From .Pat File) and you will see your patch map. This is AFTER you've set the midi channels. This is the point I made your other thread. If you were using a GM synth all that would be done automatically, here you have to select the patches and set the channels yourself.
