On the Main screen, look at the MIDI bank/program assignments for the track. This is sent everytime the sequence starts.

Alternately, program changes can be recorded in automation. Look there.

My microfreak runs to 512 (I think the added more in a later update, so depends on your current version) The MPC runs from 0-127, so a 128 options. So the microfreak starts at 1 and the MPC at 0. 512 is 4 banks of 127. Bank MSB on the MPC will select the bank

Bank 0 Program Ch 0 to 127 = 1 to 128
Bank 1 Program Ch 0 to 127 = 129 to 259
Bank 2 Program Ch 0 to 127 = 260 to 384
Bank 3 Program Ch 0 to 127 = 385 to 512
