But that is a good idea to save the MSB/LSB info to each midi track but i prefer to save a seperate on the fantom cause it saves patch and effect info as opposed to the program change which only saves the patch.
Well, if you check the MPC 1000 2.10 OS update that was released today, they fix a bug where the MPC 1000 was automatically sending out program change #0 even if the sequence was completely blank.
So to see if the 2500 is doing the same, you might want to hook it up to a Midi Monitor like Midi-OX on the PC and see if the 2500 is sending any data, when it shouldn't be...
