Hi Andy.

Two things:

1. You have to  disable the Korg from making bank changes:
On page GLOBAL page 02D set the PRG variable to NUM (or PRG, don't remeber 
which) Then Go back to MULTI and reset to GM (page 23A).

2. OR you have to teach BB how to send the correct Bank Change messages:
Bank 0 = A, Bank 7169 = Bank G (If you wish to use sounds from both bank A 
and G).

That's it  (I Think...)
cheers, Thomas
