Given a score in which percussionists are switching back and forth between instruments in rapid succession, it is pretty straightforward to set up a staff where different layers are sending midi to different channels on VST Banks (or even to different banks...) as a way to ensure best output.
BUT...
Is it possible to change to such an instrument using the utility or Score Manager? (It doesn't look like it...)
