I'd like to set it so that it uses Forte (so I can demo and decide whether I want to buy it or not) but I see two distinct places to choose a synth. At the top it says "Synth/Sound Card" and there I can indeed choose Coyote Forte DXi.





That is likely the little RH selection up top and it is where you choose the Patch Map. If you are intending to use the Coyote WT DXi, then you should choose the selection there. All it does is make sure that the instrument names you see in the BB Patch dropdown correspond to the instruments for your chosen synth. There is a long list of possible patch maps provided by default; nobody would have all of the actual software and hardware synths from that list available for actual use on any one machine, though.

But down below, below the Get Patch/Drum Kit info, there is a checkmark to use a VST/DXi synth, another checkbox to route MIDI thru to MIDI driver, and then below that a box marked VST/DXi Synth settings. In that last box, the only option I have is to choose the CoyoteWT.



And that is where you actually invoke the synth itself.

So you ideally would want to do both.
