I surely led you astray with my suggestion. The method should take no longer than 30 seconds to have you auditioning various instruments using the Style Picker.

Here are the steps:

. In BIAB, load a song, or create a chord chart.
. Select a style
. Play the Style - in this example, you like the style but do not care for the bass part created in the current style and you want to change it.
. Play the song
. Open the Style Picker
. From the Mixer in the lower left corner, just to the right of the channel instrument description, locate small box with two dots on the top channel Bass instrument
. Click on the box to change settings for this track.
. From the Menu that opens- Select Track Settings>Mute and the selected Bass track will mute and all other instruments continue to play
. Click the box again - Select Track Settings> unmute the Bass track and all instruments now are playing
. Click the box again - Select Track Settings> Solo the track
. Click the box again - Select Track Settings> deselect solo
. Click the box again - This time, Select MIDI Instrument (Patch) > Select General MIDI Patch... > Select Glockenspiel - The Bass will change to a Glockenspiel
. You can solo and mute the track as described above.
. You can continue to select and audition various instruments as the song is playing.
. You can select RealTracks, SuperMidi, Loops and any item on this menu - all while the song is playing.

Here is a link to a short, poorly recorded 2:04 minute video I recorded my PC screen with my Ipad but you should be able to follow the process from the video.

StylePicker Instrument solo, mute and midi replace demo

Note in the video the Style you like never changes. You only change the particular instrument you don't like changes. You song continues to play in the original Style but you can mute, solo and audition and change from the original Bass Patch to any Patch you wish.

I'm sorry for any confusion my earlier post may have caused and hopefully this post will explain the process better.
