You are absolutely right. I don't know what happened here. I'll pass it on to
the dev who did the work on these.
In the mean time, you can adjust the channel filter cutoff MIDI control (CC74)
Also (right click on the 'Controllers' button) this can be MIDI-learned as
well, giving you more control.
Finally, since V 1.7.2 aftertouch has been pretty stable, so it can be linked
here.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
