Here is an SFP export of one channel from a song. The Sustain and Volume commands should also be set to measure 0, Trying to set CC events at the same time you're sending note data accross 16 channels is not going to work.
See export cc.jpeg
I also suggest staggering the commands of all 16 channels through measure 0
That is instrument 1 uses events clock events 1 - 20
instrument 2 uses event clock events 30 - 50
intrument 3 uses event clock events 60 - 80 etc.
It is possible for hard hardware to accept a number of events on the same clock count. But when you get upwards of 15 events, something is bound to get lost.
It does result in sometimes flakey results. Sometimes Tyros 4 will miss one instrument, or get a parameter assigned wrong.
In my opinion, the T4 is in about the middle of the chart for speed in accepting multiple events on same clock counts.
Other instruments would be slower, hence more troublesome
But if SFP handled this, it would be one step easier to import midi files.
See Times SET up Control sequence.jpg -
I have control sequences set up for each midi channel. None of the times overlap from channel to channel. Thus I don't get missing instruments or wrong reverb levels etc. SFP should only output cc's that it uses, I leave the other events as a starting reference should I want to change individual parameters without having to create them.

This would be possible, but what happens if the song also starts playing notes at measure zero?

I have this on the agenda already.

Logic Pro starts at 0 or any -#. One might want to put the pick up note (four and) on measure 0, so that beat 1 starts at measure one. Thus parts, sections, etc start in logical places. measure 17, 33, 49, 65.
It makes it a lot simpler to keep track of where sections are .
But if you have too put CC events in measure zero and song starting on measure one. It would be nice if one could enter their own cc's (or sysex for the more advanced) for the particular hardware they're using, since this would probably be beyond the realm of SFP
