Hi again. Finally I believe I have the Midi sound drivers sorted especially with the 2018 upgrade so at least the keyboard can be put to use. Before that just some more questions or perhaps some suggestions to previous post I can be directed to re Midi. There are a few query's so will refer some to the Biab forum as well. Unfortunately I have a lot to learn with Midi. My Midi requirements are very basic. Real Tracks generally offers me the sound I am looking for as I am just making backing tracks so there are only odd times this cant be achieved. However to add that riff with Midi to make the song from just a bunch of chords to a recognizable tune, I want to use Real Band with my keyboard....when I get my head around it. My setting there are .. https://www.dropbox.com/s/qgrxxz5p5jwckth/Real%20Band%20Midi.png?dl=0No issues here with sound or latency. So again I presume when I create a Midi track here and right click to Programmes and select the instrument - I am selecting the Coyote DXi instruments??? https://www.dropbox.com/s/jfz9eys8rcypg5v/Real%20Band%20Midi%20-%20piano.png?dl=0And then I play around and get this...???? https://www.dropbox.com/s/ix5k3nmxe6qkr4g/Real%20Band%20edit%20DXi.png?dl=0Do I have to do anything here. And that leads to another question of Sforzando??? Do I need that and how do I use it. Again I presume it is another DXi or VSTi. And to get more complicated there apparently is Amplitube?? I don't mind reading if someone can direct me to where this is all explained. Thanks in advance

Your last image is the key when using a single synth for multiple tracks (at least for me).
It shows the MIDI channel and what sound is selected for that MIDI Channel.
The real way to know what track info is going where is to:
Look at the Event list for the Track (are these events on channel 1, or 3 or?
Then go to that synth screen view (for whatever synth is assigned to that track) and see what sound is assigned to that MIDI channel.
It's often a good idea to go ahead and hard write a patch change to the track for that MIDI channel. Especially if you are moving the project between different software choices.

Band-in-a-Box® 2018 for Mac - Importing MIDI Files
Did you know that Standard MIDI files can be read in to the Melodist or Soloist track within Band-in-a-Box? You can use all of the MIDI File, or select channels or a specific range of bars, using these steps:
1. Melody | Import Melody from MIDI File to select a MIDI file from disk using the file dialog.
2. Melody | Import Melody from Clipboard - when the MIDI data is already copied from another program to the
clipboard.
A new window will open, asking for additional criteria - which channels, # of bars to offset..., # of bars to import, include lyrics, include patch changes - and more! Head to our online manual Chapter 10: Working with MIDI to learn more!
