Gray color and [Inactive] warning in Track Info
Normally, the numbers for un-selected Tracks use a dark
blue background, and a light blue background hilights the
selected Track.
If the background is gray, instead, this means that the
maximum amount of EXi Fixed Resources has been
exceeded, and the EXi Program assigned to the Track will
be muted and inactive. In this case, the Selected Track
Info will also show the warning [Inactive] after the
Program's name.
For more information on this subject, including ways to
get more out of the system, see "CX-3 & other EXi:
Limitations on EXi fixed resources" on page 430.

Selects the program that will be used by each MIDI track.
The lower line displays part of the program name.
The program you select here will be used when the song is
played or recorded from the beginning. If the program is
changed while recording, the program change will be
recorded as musical data, and the program will change
during playback. You can also change the program manually
during playback. However if musical data (program change
data) is already recorded, the program will change at that
point.
If the Status (2–1a) is either INT or BTH, programs can
be selected by receiving MIDI program change messages.
Also, when the song is changed or when the song returns
to the beginning, tracks whose Status is EXT, EX2 or
