You are absolutely right! It is clearly stated in the appendix. I think I will need to have a talk with the software author, changing the MIDI Bank doesn't change the selected instrument. So it must be some issue with the software. Thank you vert much!

Thanks for your reply! Now I am not sure if I can record the incoming note data on the synth. I pressed the "record" button on the synth and started the music on the PC; while I could hear the song playing, I didn't see it record any notes at all. It started recording only after I started pushing keys on the synth, and it would only record those keys pressed. So I'm quite confused

I am a proud owner of Casio WK 7600. I have created some tracker music on my PC, based on General Midi 1 (Midi channels/programs set accordingly) and I am feeding it to the 7600 through USB. The thing is that the 7600 has some built-in instruments that I prefer to its default GM-1 instruments. Is there a way to make it play a different instrument (e.g. Stereo Strings) when I am sending Midi Program 51 (by default, Synth Strings)? The software I use supports also setting a Midi Bank for every instrument, but it doesn't seem to affect anything on 7600's playback; either it is being ignored, or perhaps I need to set some special setting on 7600? Thank you for your time! PS. I think I read somewhere that I can record the midi notes sent with "record" on 7600, and then change the instrument of every note, but I don't know how to do it and it would also be quite cumbersome for a 4-min piece.
