To overcome this, BB is currently stripping out the embedded patch changes (when you change the patch for the track), **but not the bank changes** from the soloist track.

So that would result in a MIDI soloist generated part being stuck using bank 0, regardless of the patch that you set.

That'll be fixed in the next build, so that both embedded changes of patch ** and bank ** get stripped out from a track when you change the patch.

Peter, thank you for addressing this! I hope at the same time, you'll consider allowing user configurable default settings for CC0 and CC32. The GM bank on my synth, for example is 0,1. With globally adjustable bank controllers, one could bypass patch maps ie. use the dropdown for GM instruments on the main window and avoid the higher bank dialog - for any midi-controlled sound source. That is, one setting for noodling with the desktop DXi, another for the banks in the soundcard, another for the external synth, etc. (BTW, I've never found an explicit requirement in the midi specification that the GM bank is defined as 0,0. I think there's a common assumption that it's so, because the original 1.0 spec had only 128 voices.)

Many thanks for all the fun, -RonL
