My guess would be that since the selected track doesn't contain an 
EXS-instance nothing would play at all...  Gotta try this, but I'm 
fairly sure it won't work.  Otherwise it would be the solution, 
obviously.  In my previous post I only suggested switching between 
velo-layers, because I would hate to have to load however many 
instances of the same instrument...  Still, with... how many 
nowadays...? 24? 32?  VSTi's in Logic, my objection doesn't really 
hold, I know :-).
