This is one of the clunky parts of RB and I brought this up many moons ago. Way too confusing. Why? First this process needs to be explained clearly and it most certainly is not. Then it's what John just said. You have to call up a midi style that has the instrument you want in it. BUT how do you know which style you want? First you have to go into the Stylemaker, filter for the style category then actually look at the descriptions of a midi style to see if your instrument is even in it. Then, how do you have any idea that just because a style has a midi instrument you want by the name it sounds like what you might want? You have to audition the whole style which can help somewhat but I just want to hear the instrument I'm looking for not listen to a demo of an entire stile. You wind up basically blindly picking midi styles just by the titles and hoping. No way to audition just the instrument you want like you can with an RT.

My suggestion at the time was to create audio snippits of all the different midi styles broken down by instrument to create the exact same list as we have with the RT's. Want a funky midi guitar part? Or a nice background midi organ part? Click on "Choose midi instrument" scroll the list and find funky guitars or ballad organs and double click on one and it plays a demo with or without a band just like the RT demos. If you like it then you select it as the instrument for that track. And, of course we all know the sound quality of that part still depends on the synth you have which could be different than the synth PG used to demo it but at least you have an idea what it sounds like.

Would that be an incredible amount work? Absolutely. Could that be a big selling feature? Absolutely.
