save all your banks... then overwrite the first patch of each bank with the one you want. Then just push each banks button and you'll have what you want... another common way to switch between patches is to put them one after the other on a bank and assign the switch pedal to "program up". In this way pushing your pedal you'll switch to the next timbre.

Welcome to the world of the Triton! You have chosen wisely.
Another approach is to assign the programs you want, in order, to Bank E. That bank is reserved for user programs. Then you can switch as Lorenzo suggested or via buttons, screen, etc.
This approach preserves the programs in Banks A-D and their mapping to Combinations. Otherwise if you overwrite programs in Banks A-D when you select Combinations they will sound "different". Locating and then reloading these can be a hassle so you may want to write down what you do.
Two more suggestions...for now...
1) When you save programs to an external source you save them a bank at a time, not by individual program. However when you load programs from an external source you can do so one at time.
2) If you aren't familiar with the Triton there is lots of good reading to be found here. Then feel free to ask more questions.
Good luck,
