Thanks Michael,
I've managed to mute some of the psr tracks
by doing what you suggested, but I haven't found a way of muting individual sd2 tracks.
SD2 only uses controller 0 (no controller 32 )& appears to default to main gm bank when it gets unidentifiable bank changes.
One thing at least, psr now works midied to sd1+. On the sd1 I have the option of manually muting the tracks I don't want it to play.
Pity the sd2 doesn't have the same option. It's easier to midi up the the little sd2 module than midi up a huge 76 note keyboard( sd1+)
I still have the option of having the SD2 play all of the style parts (& quite frankly the sound quality on the sd2 is superior to my psr1500), just would have been nice to have the mix option.
Miss the good old days where you could buy one of those little Anatek pocket pedals. They had solutions for all sorts of problems. A little channel on/off switcher would have been perfect.
Thanks for your help, I've at least discovered a way of muting the psr tracks & having a mix of SD1+ & PSR sounds.
Merry Xmas
best wishes

but you can trick the PSR into playing the track without sounding. Just change the MSB Bank Select for the tracks (you will need to look in the CASM to see which midi tracks go to the Bass , etc) to a value that the PSR does not use, say 100. Your other midi devices probably don't use the XG specification and will ignore the MSB, but the PSR will consider it illegal and not play anything.The program CasmEdit is an easy way to look up the Casm and edit the MSB events.
