Managing banks and programs for MIDI devices [The MIDI bank and program editor] Each MIDI device contains 16 instruments, and you can assign tracks to those instruments. In MIDI terms, each instrument corresponds to a single channel on your MIDI synth. You can choose which of the available voices (sounds) on your synth each instrument uses, but in order to do this, you need to let Rosegarden know the names for all of the available voices.
