Hi

You can not get more than 16 MIDI channels per instrument. Sblive has two
hardware synths (with loadable soundfonts) Synth A & B. They work like
independent synths, however they share the same soundfonts. (A single
pianofont as well as a full GM font).

It is not really clear to me what you are asking - it might be a language
problem either national or technical. I'll try to explain what I think you
should do, and how:

You can load up to 128 x 128 soundfonts at one time if you have RAM enough
in your system. Lets say, you've got a 16MB GM set and use many of the
sounds - you can use 32 different sounds from it at the same time (including
2 different drumsets). Then you decide that you want to use a sampled
stratocaster guitar sound font that you've downloaded. You then open the
soundfont app in AudioHQ and click the Configure Instrument' tab (the middle
one). Select an empty bank in the 'Select Bank' slider and select and an
instrument number (000 vil load the SF into the first program number in that
bank. It will then be a variation of Piano 1) and load your stratocaster
soundfont here...

Switch back to your sequencer program and change program AND BANK for the
channel you wish to play strat guitar. You will still have GM on all other
channels until you change bank on them too.

Cakewalk might have some sountfont management that can do this for you. I
don't know because I use Logic so I change banks the old fashioned way.
Cubase can show SF names when you use Synth B

You can also compile your own soundfont banks in Vienna or directly in the
SoundFont app (no saving here though...) if you don't wanna use the GM set
(like me... GM genelally sucks).

Hope this helps
