Mixer: MIDI channels change after export
Version 3.0.1, Windows 10
When a score is exported to MIDI the channels assigned to the various parts are changed to 1.
See attached score.
Steps
1. Open score
2. Check ports/channels in mixer. should be ( 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/10, 2/10)
3. Leave mixer open
4. Export to MIDI - output is midi1,mid
5. Check mixer. Port/channel for drumset 2 is now 1,
6. Export to MIDI - output midi2.mid
7. Listen to results
It is clear that on the second export, the percussion staff is played as Grand Piano instead.
Channels also seem to chage depending whic part is adjusted in mixer, but that is a more confusing picture, so harder to repeat.

Can you report this to the issue tracker?
FWIW, I'm not sure those controls are meant to affect MIDI files - I think of them as being for direct MIDI output. But having it in the issue tracker will help us, well, track the issue.

I have come to think that this may not actually be related to the mixer, but more a problem with the MIDI export.
I will post the Issue, and see if I can maybe find more info om the problem.
