Question for Persons Using VSL with Platinum

Hello:
 
I am having a problem with program/patch changes in VSL.  Here's the setup: I insert an instance of Vienna Ensemble (VST3 version) into Platinum; I load an instance of VI Pro into Ensemble.  I add a matrix for an instrument - let's say Bb Trumpet.  I add second matrix for Bb Trumpet muted.  I would like to be able switch between them using midi program changes.  I insert a program change but it has no effect.  However, the same setup using the VST2 version of Ensemble works as expected.  This is not a big deal (other than the time wasted trying to figure out the issue and it could have been a major nuisance if I had gone deeply into a project before noticing it) just wondering if it has been an issue for others.

    The VST3 spec doesn't support MIDI program changes. Program changes can technically be done via parameters but we dont support that mechanism.

    Hi Noel:
    Thanks for the info.  What was Steinberg thinking?
