It would be awesome if there was a step fx to change the loaded patch for a synth slot.

### What is the problem?

Currently you are limited to 3 synth patches for the 3 available synth slots (per song).

### What should this feature achieve?

The ability to change the synth patches by pattern or even during the pattern, in order to have more synth sounds available per song.

### Are there any workarounds?

Manually change the actively loaded patch during playback.

### Any links to related discussions?

N/A

### Any references to other products?

Midi program changes.

@k21 Thanks for your contribution. Unfortunately, we have to decline your wish because of hardware limitations.
