Okay, here goes.  Events at tick 0 (01.01.000) are only editable if the
track is set to "ext" only.  You may edit things at that tick, you may
delete things, but you may not add things.  This is because the
sequencer uses tick 0 as the location at which to place its setup info
if the track is "int" or "both".  To prevent user data from being
overwritten, that location is not "add-to-able".  The only reason tick 0
is visible at all for "ext" tracks is so that you can remove data that
might have been written if the track was saved while set to "int" or
"both".

Events (like program changes, etc) at tick 1 play before notes at tick 0
and do not play after the first loop.  This is the place that you should
put setup information for your external gear.  Basically envision tick 0
as the sequencer's private data setup and tick 1 as the user's data
setup.  Also note that this data is played slightly ahead of time when
switching from pattern to pattern.  If that's still not early enough for
your Korg, try moving the first notes targeted to the Korg later in time
so as to give your Korg plenty of time to do its program change.
