Exactly.
Once upon the time, GM was helpful.
If you made your sequencer play a BassDrum, on one synth,
it would play a BassDrum on a different GM machine too,
without any configuration.
Today MIDI + GM appear too limited.
We need 3 drum-kits, 10 snares, 52 channels, 64 bit
.... spoiled musicians ;)
With current OSC, one would have to configure the headstrong soup of both
sender and receiver.
