CC192 is a mistake. There is no CC192 in standard MIDI.
CC means a "Control Change" MIDI message, a 3 bytes message. The first byte is
the status byte, with values from hex 0xB0 for channel 1 (176 dec) to 0xBF
for channel 16 (191 dec). The second byte is the control number, 00 for bank
select MSB, and the third byte is the actual control value, the bank number
from 0 to 127 dec. http://home.roadrunner.com/~jgglatt/tech/midispec/ctl.htm
The "Program Change" (PC) MIDI message is a 2 bytes message. The first byte is
the status byte, with values from hex 0xC0 for channel 1 (192 dec) thru 0xCF
for channel 16 (207 hex). The second byte is the patch number from 0 to 127
dec. http://home.roadrunner.com/~jgglatt/tech/midispec/pgm.htm
So, for bank 7 patches 6 and 7, in GS mode the messages would be:
CC0=7 followed by PC=6
CC0=7 followed by PC=7
The first message sequence for channel 1, in bytes:
Hex: B0 00 07 C0 06
Dec: 176 0 7 192 6
OTOH. The message "fluidsynth: warning: Instrument not found on channel 0
[bank=896 prog=6]" means that you are not testing the last SVN version,
because there is currently no way to send a bank=896 to fluidsynth in the new
default GS mode.
Hope this helps.

Pedro
