   In what way is it not in sync?  Timing across tracks?  Something else?

   "Receive external" puts the currently selected track into a mode 
where it will set its bank/program to whatever bank/program comes in 
from the keyboard.  Its intent is to make it easier to dial up a 
specific bank/program without having to sift through all the entries in 
the comboboxes.

   This is working as designed.  It is intended to be used on a single 
track at a time.  Switching to another track turns it off.  This 
prevents accidentally messing up the bank/program settings on other tracks.

   This is the way banks/programs for a track should be set up ideally. 
This is the way Rosegarden is designed to work.  If there isn't a bank 
that you can import from the library that matches your keyboard, that 
makes it difficult to use Rosegarden.

   That said, there are certainly other ways to use Rosegarden.  Do you 
have tracks that change program over the course of a piece?  In that 
case, importing banks won't help much.  You'll more likely want to use 
the event editor to work with banks/programs.

   I recommend starting small.  Whip together a short two track example 
on the Triton.  Send it over to Rosegarden, then send us the resulting 
.rg file.  Tell us what you expect and what you are getting.  We should 
be able to help quite a bit from that starting point.
