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?
