I'm saying it's the wrong way to describe it. An "index" is just a
number. It says which thing in the list is the one you want. The list
of banks in a synth looks like :

  Things        :  [bank, bank, bank, ...]
  Index numbers :    0     1     2    ...

Obviously you would store this list of bank objects in an array. If
the array is held in a variable named banks then
  banks[2]
accesses the bank in the list whose index number is 2.

What I said is that 
  each synth has several banks, 
  each bank in each synth has several instruments, 
  each instrument in each bank in each synth has several notes.

That's what you will see in the structure of a synth. Obviously, it's
a nested structure. Now that the structure has been described you can
decide what objects, etc, you are going to use to implement one of
these stuctures.
