First, I'm a total noob in using DAWs
But I've purchased Mulab sometimes ago, because it came my imaginations of a workflow rather near and because I had in beginning to make music with "synthetic or electronic music", which I like very much.
I had only a midi-keyboard and some free VSTs in the beginning. Then I've read in forums, tests, tutorials on youtube and my choice fell on mulab.
But now I was able, to buy nice hardwareinstruments from casio, a px-5s and a xw-p1 which I like over all, no more is to get for the money...
Is there a possibility, to build and to use a patchlist or so one to use these instruments with mulab in the manner, that there can be changed in a song the bank and the patch, and in a second step some parameters can be changed with automation?
The reason is, that I want to build some "songs" with mulab and these instruments and then plaback the tracks from mulab with the keyboards as sound-creator (also not with VSTs) and can with another keyboard play liveparts simultaneously to.
So that there are possibilities to program complete "concerts" and perform this alone and live?
That would be the goal to practice and to do some meaningfull with that instruments.

I've played a long time ago in church orgen, and a won't do that anymore, because I want only make music, which gives me a big satisfaction, let me get good feelings and would not be only "a stupid play by notes and practising hours long for a tree minute prelude..." In my age are the finger not so fast, and there is the play and use of technology a good tool I think ;)
And because computers are my profession and one of my hobbies, there would it be a good symbiose with make musik.
It would be great if someone can get any hint(s) how my Ideas can be realised - I think that a small impact on the back of the head can help alot to get ahead...

Your hardware should have a list of programs/patches that can be selected via MIDI requests -- the specific message is "Program Change" and you can insert this in the MuLab timeline at any point you want to select the appropriate patch. There are also "bank" change messages ("most significant byte" - MSB - and "least significant byte" - LSB) messages, that select between sets of 128 patches (each MSB out of 128 has up to 128 LSB banks, each LSB bank has up to 128 patches).

Is that what you're after?
