I apologize up front for asking a question that has probably been asked/answered multiple times, but after searching the forums, reading the DOCs, and watching many of the PG videos, I'm still not sure if I have Band in a Box 2019 64 Bit configured optimally for my Windows 10 setup.

In a nutshell, I'm trying to determine the best MIDI/Audio settings for a basic 64 bit install running on Windows 10. I have it running and playing through my external speakers, but some of the instrument sounds are still pretty bad (IMHO). The trumpet and sax sounds are a couple that immediately come to mind. Anyway, it's possible I have it configured properly and this is the best I can do, but I sure would like some confirmation. What make me suspicious that it is still not setup up properly is that I have tried various configurations, even some that I later read were not supposed to work or be optimal, but the output sounded the same as my current settings. In other words my previous incorrect choices sounded as good (or bad) as my current setup, so is my current setup actually correct?

At any rate, here's what I currently have selected under the MIDI/Audio Drivers setup dialog. The underlined items are my current selections:

MIDI Input Driver: No Midi/Sound input

MIDI Output Driver: Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth

Synthesizer / Sound Card: General MIDI Instrument Misc.

Use VSTi/DXi Synth [checked]
Route MIDI Thru to MIDI driver [checked]
DXi Synth Settings[VSTSynthFont64] is selected

GM2 Support (128 Extra Patches) No GM2 Support - 128 patches only is selected

Audio Settings...[WAS always] is selected

If anyone can confirm that I now have the correct choices to produce the best sounds, or suggest improvements, I would appreciate it!
