There are two types of program changes sent. The first type is sent on
the channel for "track 9" whenever a Bank is loaded. This is useful to
set up multitimbral modules, drum machines etc. ready for performance.
It kinda mirrors the way the Polymorph works.

The other type is as an Aux event - and can be controlled as per all
Aux events - you send it when you need to. I personally use this to
alter patterns on my Electribes and thus provide some variation during
a performance. The trick (which I have not totally mastered) is to
send them exactly when you want to - I would typically store each Aux
event but only unmask or unmute them when I choose.

Does that help?
