I'd seen this mentioned in the manual,
: Next Instrument
: Selects the Following Instrument (when multiple Instruments
: are opened for editing) ...
and had assumed that this feature was just to let you flip between
instruments that you'd already manually opened, rather than a way of
loading new instruments.
Of course, the sensible thing would be to implement Program Change
commands, and let the user switch between the patches in a folder
that way. I don't suppose many of us have more than 128 EXS patches
in one folder. Use bank commands to switch between folders.
Allow the "bank" and "patch" lists to appear on the
arrange page as
they currently do for MIDI instruments and memory-resident
soundfonts, the user could then select the patch list parameter and
change the value with the +/- keys. Especially useful if you have
imported "GM sets" of instruments into EXS, and have lots of very
small fast-loading instrument sets, 128 per folder.
At the moment, logic's integrated instruments are arguably a bit less
integrated in some ways than third-party instruments and external
MIDI sources, not implementing program changes is bizarre.
