I'm not sure which version you're using, but there was a brief period when
Program Change messages weren't being sent - fixed now.

Also, are you sure your synth accepts program Changes?

Finally some synths require a bank change immediately before a program
change... and that often means both CC0 and CC32 (in that order)

I've just been working though this entire issue. It's 'kin nightmare. The MIDI
spec is actually quite clear, why can't the soddin' 'experts' stick to it?
<rant mode = "off">

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
