Absynth In Protools Qn - How To Multitrk Midi??, Need to use multiple Absynth channels Options

[ambientdub]

OK hope my terminology is correct here.

I have no problem setting up a single Absynth track on ProTools (LE) - I just create an audio trk, a MIDI trk, and use channel 1 of Absynth via RTAS.

But there are 15 other channels available thru Absynth and I want to use as many of them as poss. in realtime.

I found a way to specify the MIDI bank to use on Absynth (0-255) but can't get channel 2 to produce a sound.

The OTHER qn I have is : how can I record a MIDI trk to the audio trk WHILE monitoring it through the DIGI 001? I need to route it to Analog 1-2 (where my monitors are) AND route it to the track at the same time, which doesn't seem possible.

Cheers
