I do see the names of the vst in the track.,
Manning I dont have smaller vsts to link to. I don't believe it is the vst at issue here.
As I have said I think it is something to do with the directing of the midi signal in RB.

checking/unchecking the 'reroute all midi' box in preferences
has an effect. I can either get my VSTs working or the' band' but presently not both.

In case its not clear, what I am trying to do is use biab files for backing, then use my VST to play along. SO far this seems very difficult to achieve for something which is basically an accompaniment program. Its still a great ap though
