This is just a guess, but you could try increasing the polyphony limit
in WhySynth. If that patch has long envelopes, you could easily be
hitting the limit while playing a sequence (the default limit here seems
to be 12 notes). I don't know about WhySynth in particular, but in many
synths this causes clicks, as new notes cause older notes to end abruptly.
