This can be somewhat made easier if my keyword also took the memo text of the instrument into account. Example: Searching for an electric guitar which predominantly plays a backbeat. As things are now, if I type 'guitar electric backbeat' into my search, I'd get a far more limited number of matches than are actually available, because so few of the names of these instruments include the word 'backbeat', whereas it would most often be mentioned in its Memo.

Some of this gets easier as you become more familar with the styles and RealTracks but I'm all for any idea that reduces the learning curve.
