Also there are a few VSTi that just do not play nice. One for me is PS fretted. It would never load properly, and will not playback. Also there are a few that do not link all the way. i use sampletank a lot, and i find that in RB particularly it acts different than in other DAW software. Alot of the time the tracks do not respond with commands like volume adjustment do not work well. Also ST will not function properly if inserted as the default synth. Place it in any other slot and it work better. As the default the system will not save the ST setting for the next time you open the song. Default is DX synth 16 place it as Dx synth 1 and it wil save the settings. Not big issue but it forces you to have two synths in the rack. Not having a clue how that stuff works my best guess is that the program is coded to look for GM spec for the default synth, and since ST is not GM it fails.

Overall most of the synth i have work fine. a few like the freebie piano and electric piano from the true paino folks (can't remember the exact name) plays but it plays at full volume with no track controlled adjsutment. The only way to cut the volume is to render to wave file and cut it there. I have found others like this but just do not use them. With VSC, TTS, and Sampletank i get all the sounds i want for now, until i can afford a real good hardware synth module.
