/**

 * A <code>Patch</code> object represents a location, on a MIDI

 * synthesizer, into which a single instrument is stored (loaded).

 * Every <code>Instrument</code> object has its own <code>Patch</code>

 * object that specifies the memory location

 * into which that instrument should be loaded. The

 * location is specified abstractly by a bank index and a program number (not by

 * any scheme that directly refers to a specific address or offset in RAM).

 * This is a hierarchical indexing scheme: MIDI provides for up to 16384 banks,

 * each of which contains up to 128 program locations.  For example, a

 * minimal sort of synthesizer might have only one bank of instruments, and

 * only 32 instruments (programs) in that bank.

 * <p>

 * To select what instrument should play the notes on a particular MIDI

 * channel, two kinds of MIDI message are used that specify a patch location:

 * a bank-select command, and a program-change channel command.  The Java Sound

 * equivalent is the

 * {@link MidiChannel#programChange(int, int) programChange(int, int)}

 * method of <code>MidiChannel</code>.
