sforzando only allows one instrument at a time (it's not a multi-instrumental MIDI synth). That said, I haven't tried to see if it's possible to load multiple, different instances of sforzando. I'll try when I get home tonight. In the meantime, what you could do is load the Piano and then create a wav file of that track and load that wav into RB (and then mute the piano midi track). After that, use sforzando on the bass. Regards, Noel

You should be able to load multiple instances of Sforzando into each of the different available ports, then select a different instrument for each.
Just right click on the track and select the option to load a VST into a specific slot, choose the port, then the Sforzando VST for that port. Each instance will work independently of each other.

See this thread http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=438092#Post438092Accompanied with the image below it should help explain. sForzando synth plays one sound at time. But you can load many copies of the sForzando synth at once; each with their own sound. What you need to know: Each MIDI track goes to a Port. When you use a default MIDI synth all tracks go to it unless you change this setting. So assign each track to it's own Port and use another copy of the synth (or even a different synth) on that Port. Problem solved. This is how you use lots of synths in RB. The image below is of the Right-Click menu of any MIDI track .. it should help figure out how to assign a given synth to a track using the Port Track-> Port -> synth (either softsynth or hardware) In the image below I have 16 hardware ports available in my Delta before/above the 16 softsynth ports. The options are there, but you need to set them up for the desired result. You will likely see your default synth in Port 32 (softsynth 16) on your system. That's where all MIDI gets assigned when the 'Use Default Synth' box is checked .. but you can change it for each track.

M-Audio Delta 1010 interface. https://www.ebay.com/p/M-Audio-Delta-1010-LT-sound-card-DELTA-1010-LT-DELTA-1010LT-US41077/77161194Be advised, in the above listing the seller says it will work in a laptop; not true. It needs a PCI slot which is getting harder to find lately, so the low prices will likely get lower. I have a couple different systems using these cards and they just keep working .. through W7 and W8 so far. Haven't tried them on 10.

Band-in-a-Box® 2018 for Mac - 45 Requests Fulfilled!
Band-in-a-Box® 2018 for Mac is here, and there's more than 80 new features! We've answered some user requests with this release, including:
Q. I am learning guitar. The RealTracks are very helpful in that I can hear great guitar players, and most of the tracks have tab and notation as well. But there is much more to guitar, could you include some videos of some of the RealTracks Artists? Because I would learn much more from seeing a guitarist than just hearing them.
A. We have a major new feature called "Video RealTracks." These work and sound like RealTracks, but you get to see a video of the Guitarist (or whatever instrument) playing as well. The amazing thing is that this works with any chord progression you type in. So, if you want to learn to play like the great guitarist Brent Mason, for example, you can type in chords to any progression you are interested in, and then hear and see a video of Brent soloing over your progression. Now you can learn much quicker, as it helps to see how a musician is performing, as well as to hear.
Q. I use the feature to make a video of the chord sheet from a Band-in-a-Box song. I use it to make backing tracks and upload them to YouTube. But these don't include any notation for the melody and lyrics of my songs. My viewers would like to see the melody and lyrics too. Is there a way you can include the melody in the video? I've tried recording this with screen capture programs, but it's time consuming, recording in real time, and the audio quality and sync are not that good.
A. Yes, Band-in-a-Box 2018 can do this now. You can save your song as a video of the notation track. So that includes the notation, guitar tab, and lyrics. And saving the whole video and audio just takes a few seconds, much faster than real time recording. Just load in your song with chords, melody, lyrics, and/or guitar tab, and press Save-As Notation Video. Your song will be up on YouTube in no time!
Q. I am songwriter and uses Band-in-a-Box to make backing tracks for my productions. I'm starting to make videos and upload them to YouTube. Can Band-in-a-Box help with my production videos?
A. Band-in-a-Box 2018 can now make videos with Video RealTracks, of the musicians performing the RealTracks. And they are playing along to your song's chord progression. You can include these videos in your own song performance, which adds a nice visual element.
Q. I use the Audio Harmonies in Band-in-a-Box. But I find the harmonies simplistic, in that they are mainly using chord tones. The Band-in-a-Box MIDI harmonies are more sophisticated, using passing tones. Why can't my Audio Harmonies work like that?
A. We've added support for new types of Audio Harmonies in the Audio Edit Window. These do allow you to choose any Band-in-a-Box MIDI harmony that has passing tones or sophisticated jazz voicings (adding 4 parts to make a 5-part jazz voicing for example). Band-in-a-Box automatically figures out the MIDI version of your melody so it uses this to create the harmonies.
Q. The new toolbar is nice, but needs more color options. Too much grey! How about skins?
A. We've added support for skins, and you can choose color or grey scale options for toolbar, mixer etc.
And more!!!
