Yes, each voice has a different sound and response to a fixed 
midichannel, 1 for the first, 2 for the second voice and so on...

Actually I find it rather interesting to have different settings between 
automatically assigned notes. For instance with slightly different 
sounds it even would become more alive.
But yes, for the average usage it would be great to just copy the 
settings across the voices.
The channel stealing algorhythm kept me from implementing polyphony so 
far, got to study that...

A while ago I was against the idea of plugins but actually find it now 
usefull for recalling sessions. It would be great to stuff PD, Csound or 
AlsaModularSynth into a sequencer. So far I know that you can create 
LADSPA plugs with Faust and Csound but instruments??

Cheers,

Malte
