1. What John said: 2017 should not have messed with Forte DXi - also do as John suggested do a "rescan."

2. To use the new SForzando HI-Q sounds you WILL need to add the VSTi for SForzando to your plug-ins (one time thing). The following is a long winded description and background for the non-VST plug-in user (at the end a how to add the SFozando sfz player) :

VSTi's, unlike DXi's (like Forte DXi or SampleTank 2's DXi), are NOT automatically scanned for by BAIB and added to your plugins lists.

DXi' are in the system Registry and can easily be found by ANY program since they ARE in the registry and in a fixed location in the registry. VST's and VSTi's are NOT always in the registry and the files (.dll's for the VST's and VSTi's) can be ALL over the computer.

Unfortunately It's up to USER to KNOW where they are or where they were installed. Having said that, the USUAL DEFAULT install locations for most VST/VSTi are in these folders (I'm talking in general here, I am talking about the SForzando plug in YET):

64 bit VSTi/VSTi (or 32 bit plug-ins if the OS is a 32 bit OS)

C:\Program Files\"owning program name" (like CAKEWALK) \VstPlugins
C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VstPlugins
C:\Program Files\VstPlugIns
C:\Program Files\Vst


32 bit VST/VSTi plug-ins installed on a 64 bit OS

C:\Program Files (x86)\"owning program name" (like CAKEWALK) \VstPlugins
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steinberg\VstPlugins
C:\Program Files (x86)\VstPlugIns
C:\Program Files (x86)\Vst

3. To install the SForzando sfz plyer to use the new HI-Q sounds (which by the way you ALSO have to SEPARATELY AND CONSCIOUSLY INSTALL) you will be looking for a file called

"sforzando VST_x86.dll"

and whatever directory that's in that's where you will tell BIAB to look for the VSTi when you select

"add VSTi plugin"

from the BIAB Plug-ins pull down menu.

MINE was here because this is where I keep 99% of my plugins (also I have a few versions of Plogue's players so mine not be the EXACT place yours is)

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VstPlugIns\Plogue Art et Technologie, Inc\sforzando VST_x86.dll"
