The disappearance of my edits to the Studio Set was the result of my blowing up a circuit breaker by plugging in a heat into an electrical socket while the Integra was on and plugged into the same circuit. I fixed that.
 
However, it occurred to me that rather than create a dedicated Midi track in which to enter these two events:
 
Control event, Controller number 0, Value 85
Control event, Controller number 32, Value 0
 
I could simply create a Sysex file that automatically loaded into a sequence that did the same thing. However, I have forgotten how to create such a Sysex file for the Roland Integra. Can anyone help?

OK, so I wrote into the Integra's memory to start with Studio Set 6 as the default sound set, and that's what actually happens when I turn it on.  So, I am attempting to use the Integra with SONAR in Clunk mode where whatever instruments are assigned to a Midi channel is what I use in SONAR. If Studio Set 6 has Perky Spin as Part 4 Channel 4, I can use Perky Spin in SONAR. Crude, but at least I get some sound of the unit.
 
The problem is that simply loading SONAR causes Part 1 in Studio Set 1 to go blank, ie no instrument, no sound.

Men, men, I read all of the comment and nothing with the solution. I did one of instrument patch for Rs-9. I couldn't remember what I did, but it took me to write every single sound for a month! suck! I love the tone of Integra-7 but it's head ache! the problem I have now is the assigning Chanel is not function.

Yep. the Integra-7 remains a mystery to me. My SONAR sequences trigger different sounds every time I load them, as the Integra-7 does not seem to remember patch assignments on a consistent basis.
 
Still working on this problem.

Yep. I will have to dig what should I do now. It seems to work like a normal or general sound generation but it does not really pick every sound instrument in the Integra. When I assign the instrument from the preference and assign for each tract, work just find but the integra keeps disappearing. I have to close the Sonar and turn off and on the Integra then it shows up but the Midi channel shown default. However I could not find the instrument list. I have the Roland SC-88 which is very easy use and every Music software can pick up but not the integra. The SC-88 does sound ok but it does not sound like real music instrument. Hopefully we will find solution.

I can't understand why you can't use the MSB/LSB thing. This is standard fare for any midi capable external sound module. You can create your own INS file if you want.

I don't own or use an Integra but it seems to me it follows the midi spec pretty well in this regard.

You could also indeed record a sysex file but as long as you use only presets, Sonar will remember them if you set them to the correct PC MSB/LSB for each track. Sonar resetting your module on boot is a preference that you can change.

Thanks Snehankur, I have already download the I-7 int-definition. However the "C" =midi Channel set is default. the "B" of bank of is none. The "P" of the Patch allow me to select the instrument sound and it play just fine, but not all the I-7 sounds.
 
However, I try the I-7 editor It work just fine. I can choose for the all sounds but it need to take time to assign the tracks and instruments. Some how it work but it doesn't seem to be normal for a Midi module (I-7) and Music software (Sonar Platinum).

Thanks for everyone. I just found that I have too many module that the Sonar get confused. The Sonar Platinum can't handle multiple module. However, the Integra-7 is the most I need. What I do, I have to disable every module except the integra. It works!
 
Now time to kiss my baby Integra-7.
