Ok, this is the result of a 16 step sequence containing one note.  For some
reason, the SQ16 sends note offs for notes that haven't even triggered (I
think that these are notes in the sequence that I've muted).  If I mute all
the notes in the track, the SidStation doesn't reset.  If there are any
note ons, then it resets.  

When I say reset - sometimes it's as if the SidStation has turned off then
on again (a full reset), and sometimes the screen goes blank, and I have to
reset it myself.  And, the MIDI light stays on (as if it was jammed).

It's also sending SPP.  I'd say that this might be the problem, but the
SidStation resets before the end of the sequence (where the SPP appears)
... it does not play any notes.

Have a look:

 00034F27    2     8D    00    00   14  C 0  Note Off
 00034F28    2     8D    1C    51   14  E 1  Note Off
 00034F2A    2     8E    2E    51   15  Bb2  Note Off
 00034F2B    2     82    2C    51    3  G#2  Note Off

(also weird that it's sending note offs for channels 15 and 3, because
those channels are muted on the sequencer)
