And while I'm at it, how do you change a tracks' instrument then ? Frankly I
don't know.
Anyway, about this InstrumentId vs. TrackId thing : it turns out we very
heavily rely on MappedEvent carrying an InstrumentId and needing one at
construction. Requiring that we give it a track Id instead would yield way
too much work. So for the moment, I've settled with adding a trackId
datamember to it, which is set by the GUI when filling the mmapped segments
(giving a dummy instrumentId), and which the sequencer then uses to find the
actual instrument.
I'll now try to add the tracks' mute status to the control block.
