This feels to me like a bug. In Step Recording mode, Matrix should take over the keyboard and route the note to the selected Segment's device/channel (Instrument). It shouldn't go through the usual main window routing. Of course, this could get confusing when a user forgets to turn off

Perfect. Then it's probably set up on channel 10 by default. It's probably just the usual GM mapping, so the key mapping should be the usual. Otherwise they would have included a key mapping in the manual. Regardless, get some experience with GM mode, then play around with panel mode
