Hi again, the problem's been solved:)
The source of the problem was that in the MIDI/Instrument section of the track properties window (screenshot) I changed the values of bank and program variables and I forgot about it (I was just experimenting with the presets). So even when I saved the session, after reloading the parameters were restored to the values of this MIDI program. I see some plugins store the MIDI banks/programs (like Whysynth) but most probably not (e.g. Obxd). So what is the purpose of these MIDI programs, are they for hardware devices?
In the meantime I also found some "small inconveniences":
1) When you double-click on the plugin inside the mixer window you either open the "properties" or "edit" window (depending on the config). Opening the alternative window requires you to open pop-up menu and then select it. Allowing "shift-click" or "ctrl-click" on the plugin for the alternative window ("properties" or "edit") would be helpful, convenient and welcome enhancement:)
2) During a session, a saved parameters preset is not visible to other instances of the same plugin, even for the new opened ones. It seems that the only solution is to reload the session. Probably Qtractor loads all presets when it restores the session, is there a way to trigger the reloading of the presets manually without reloading the whole session?
3) (Slightly offtopic) Is there a way to disable this red rectangle in Qjackctl systray icon? I know I have xruns, no need to blink:)

Sorry for the false alarm with Obxd.
