Alternatively, you could be sneaky and set the hidden parameter that corresponds to the tap button being down:

it's parameter (0x79 0x20) (4127 in decimal).  Set it to 1 for down and then back to 0 when you're done.

Select Next Pattern with Mute Hold:
F0 18 0F dd 55 01 02 07 21 xx yy F7
F0 18 0F dd 55 01 02 79 20 01 00 F7
F0 18 0F dd 55 01 02 04 21 xx yy F7
F0 18 0F dd 55 01 02 79 20 00 00 F7
