But the instrument has to be able to tell control changes to stolen voices from control changes for a new voice from a voice that should replace the new voice in the same id (like with midi's pitch=id). Its easier if it doesn't have to keep track of which are which. > Again, this is voice allocation. Leave this to the synth. Absolutly. - Steve
