BIAB is doing this again in 835.

One thing that's common between this time and before is that I set the song up from an imported file; MIDI this time, I can't remembere whether the previous song started as MIDI or XML.

Again I've used the Melody step editor to check for embedded patch changes and there are none.
Again I've tried changing patches via the mixer, removing the patch, restoring the patch, no change.

Something that did work was using Harmony to the Melody track. Then the sound changed to the Harmony instrument, though removing Harmony reverts to always playing piano (the instrument from the MIDI file ... may be significant, mnay be coincidence).

For this song, the Harmony will do just fine, so problem circumvented, but I've still spent a couple of hours trying to get BIAB to play the instrument it says on the mixer :-(

Oh, yes, if I import the track into RealBand, it plays the instrument I'd expected.


I have a memory that the following may have implicated in something ... BIAB is saving this as an .MGX file, not a MGU. The manual just says it's an aide memoir that it was made from imported MIDI. The Melody track contains only notes.
