Greetings!
I admit right away that I am new at this.
How do a send bank numbers from a T2 midi track? Probably something I overlooked.
Using PC/Spike/Yamaha USB Midi Drivers/P250
Thanks!

You have to bodge it I'm afraid: Tracktion doesn't (yet) have specific support for bank select messages.. it can still be done however: you just need to know that the bank MSB is set by the value of controller 0, and the LSB by controller 32. Tracktion calls these 'Bank Select' and 'Bank Select (fine)' IIRC. Set the values using Tracktion's cc editing features.

I made a plug to help actually, but you can't have it till I get home from work..

'Continuous Controllers' are things like pitch & modulation wheels: click the 'control' icon at the top of the piano roll and press the 'type' button. The most common ones appear in a shortlist:

You will need to go the the 'controllers' sub-menu at the bottom for a complete list..
.. or you could use this plug which has two fields for MSB & LSB values (you can click these to type the values in directly) and a button to send the message.. it also has 128 blank preset slots: if you copy the names of the patches in a particular bank on your hardware synth into the preset slots for this plug, and then save it as a .fxb file, you will be able to use Tracktion's patch selecting features with your outboard synth..
