I've noticed that MIDI Channel 10 (or 9 if you're counting from 0 rather than 1) behaves differently to the rest when using the default QuickTime instrument set on the DLSMusicDevice. It seems to be geared towards percussion: for example, selecting instrument ID zero gives you the standard drum kit rather than the normal "Piano 1".

I've a sneaking suspicion I'm demonstrating a lack of general MIDI knowledge by asking this, but does anybody know why this is or where this behaviour is documented? I've noticed that MIDI files do tend to use channel 10 for percussion. Is there something in the General MIDI standard about this?

Channel 10 is the drum channel for standard MIDI
