Testing the new build...  All the sequencer stuff seems to be working now, G.  
Sounds good.  I jiggled lots of things without getting it to stumble.  Solo 
works, mute buttons work...  I didn't test recording or repeats.

Anyway, I loaded a file played it, then imported a file.  Nothing is playing 
at all, no matter where I point the respective tracks.  I thought it might be 
some document change cleanup problem, but then I looked and saw this:

WARNING: Invalid utf8 octet sequence in string "�     IMPORTANT NOTE:  This 
song file requires a patch bank        �" at index 0

�" at index 0
WARNING: Invalid utf8 octet sequence in string

WTF?  I guess there's some unexpected stuff in the .mid file I imported.  I'm 
not going to file a bug and upload the file because it's music ripped out of 
an old Sierra game.

Anyway, this is a first in all the time I've been using RG.  Not sure if it 
actually qualifies as a bug or not, since most likely the blame lies with the 
original file.

Hmmm....  Imported another one from a completely different source, and still 
no noise.  Maybe this *is* a doc loading problem.

Or not.

Damned strange.  I exited/restarted.  Tried importing that file again.  Looks 
OK, and it's transmitting the program changes, but no notes.  I've verified 
that it's not just a matter of volume being off on every channel.  No notes.

Exited/restared again.  No notes.  Exited, started sequencer separately, then 
GUI, and now it's working.  WTF?

I'll try to figure it out.
