I'm doing practice tracks for my students. The examples are 8 measures long. I do a hold on the last chord, include an extra measure of silence, then drum fill to start the next example.

What I decided to do is the change the style for the next example. I'm using Bar Settings to change the key, but decided to change the Style, too. I went from a Rock style _ROCKAAH.STY and then put in the Bar Settings to change to a reggae style, THRDWRLD.STY. When it plays, the style changes in the style box, but the instrumentation doesn't change in the mixer at all. All instruments drop out except the melody and the drums. I can't tell if the drums have change appropriately to the new style, and nothing else changes.

I tried saving the file, closing BIAB, and re-opening in BIAB, but no change. What to do?
