First of all: I don't understand how the BCR could send "B0 32 00".
Is there some confusion concerning decimal versus hexadecimal representations? (32 decimal = 20 hexadecimal.)

Secomdly: the GR-20 manual, p. 41, states that "The LSB of Bank Select is ignored."
So I think you don't even have to send the second CC message (as sent by the GT-8).

So for instance, to assign the message described above (without the second CC message) to a BCR button via BC Manager, you can do the following:

On the "Standard output" tab of the button dialog box, you select the following parameters:
Type: Program Change
Channel: 1
Bank MSB: 0
Bank LSB: Off
Program: 3
(It will probably help to set "Show value" on the "General" tab as well.)

You then have to upload the new preset definition to the BCR.
If you're in preset 0 (the temporary preset), you can even send the individual button's definition to test immediately if it produces the desired output.

Hope this helps,
Mark.
