Do I understand that right?
Instead of "Bank A, Patch 27" "Bank G, Patch 10" is saved.
But the position "Bank E, Patch 9" to save to is correct?

What happens if you retrieve Patch 28 instead of 27 of Bank A
and try to save it to "Bank E, Patch 9"?

Ok, now it sounds like a "0 to 127" vs. "1 - 128" problem.

Do the patch numbers of the Korg Triton start with 0 or with 1?

If it always grabs the GM patch then your request method is simmply not =
correct.
Perhaps you just have to set the correct bank in the sysex bytes.

Yes, but I'm not sure what you mean by Bank E, Patch 9 is correct.  That 
*is* where it gets saved.

It still saves Patch 10 bank G to "Bank E, Patch 9" - in other words - 
Bank G and (requested store location) patchNum + 1.  If I try to save 
whatever to E-20 it will copy G-21 to E-20.

I'm looking into that.  It must be that I'm telling it to do what it's 
doing, right?  I do wish the Midi Implementation for my synth was a 
little easier to understand.  Slowly but surely though, I am making 
progress.
