But maybe hosting VB3m as an AUv3 could give you a way around this? Anyway, I don't think this is how Guido would want it to work, I'm guessing it's an oversight and will be addressed. Before, if you were running it with another app, you could send a program change to that other app, and VB3m would just do nothing now if you send a program change to that other app, there might be no way to prevent it from changing your VB3m sound as well.
If I'm understanding correctly, for some people, then, this could be worse than before. Still useful (since some people will only be using it by itself anyway), but quite a limitation, if you can't use Program Change on any other app you may be running along with it (Korg Module, a piano/EP app, a synth, whatever).
Otherwise the app almost might as well go back to having no program changes at all, since it means you can't use that feature unless it's the only "sound module" app you're running. So if you are thinking of using with your live rig that might be an issue. So it's not tied to the basic channel and listens on all 16 channels. VB3 receives program changes in OMNI mode. But a 73 key single manual DMC-122 would work for me as well - with or without a Gemini. However, I don't think bolting a D9x onto a 61 waterfall keyboard, even with pitch and mod wheels, is going to cut it as a general controller. In the meantime I still think 61/73 controller running the Gemini instruments on a mobile device might be a step in that direction. And it's interesting that the Mojo 61 happened despite Guido's original comments as I think he also said (some years ago mind) he would never release anything on iOS! So we have the Mojo 61 and now VB3m on iOS. Yes that would be the Electro killer and like you I hope that one day Crumar might release it. Why doesnt he have a custom shop where different configurations of his items (dual manual, single manual, drawbars, gemini, other items he's created, choosing your own keybed) can be offered? As a user and customer the lack of a single manual 73/76 key controller with drawbars and a Gemini module frustrates me. Look how successful that keyboard turned out to be. When Guido was asked if he would ever consider a single manual Mojo, his answer was "Nojo".
When the Mojo came out it was a dual manual organ people wanted a single manual keyboard. I'll bet that his most recent highest selling item is the Mojo 61. Many people have asked for this keyboard option but it's never been delivered. The one keyboard that is missing from the offerings is a single manual controller with 73 or 76 semi-weighted keys in order to extend the keyboard for acoustic/electric piano, drawbars and an optional Gemini module (I call this keyboard the the Electro killer).
