".....This only is evident with the soloist or songs with solos in them. All other instruments seem to play as selected and listed above the instrument scroll down box. If I select a soloist patch that patch stays on other songs witin that folder. All other instruments change when I select a different song??? Any help appreciated "

Did you check to see if the results are the same using a soft synth? If they are, the problem is not with the sd2. It it's a midi style, you can delete the program change to the elec piano via the Events List. Remember that the song regenerates when you hit play each time. FWIW
