To eallan. Only through program changes from midi file.

Sorry but i only wanted to help you find an ''Alternative SF2 VST to Vsynth'' as the the topic says.
If you have found already the best alternative and is the Synthfont and  developer will try to modify his vst the way you want i dont
understand the purpose of this topic.

Another alternative is to try VirtualMIDISynth that has 16 channel mixer upfront where you can change instruments and correct large, multi file SF2 file support.
The newst version just added MIDI Mixer to MIDI Converter. Added also channel "solo" feature to MIDI Mixer.
It can be enabled/disabled by clicking on the new "solo" button or by pressing the S key (while the channel is selected).
Solo ratio can be configured with Mixer context menu.
Is not a vsti BUT you can save the song in varranger as midi and import it in VirtualMIDISynth and then export each channel in sync to each other from the begining with one bar space
as you wish. After exporting, audiofiles does not drift and stay in sync together. After that put them in a daw and add your vst fx.

Why don't you use BassMidiVsti_x64 from http://falcosoft.hu/softwares.html ?  It is free and i think way much better than any other.

I can Send you as much as you want but tell me how, because the size is about 30gb.
For now help your self with some samples. The first two are Tyros 4 and the rest Korg Pa2x

Hello Pekilik.
Perhaps is not so simple. Maybe Dan's arranger engine has the same problem that "Live styler" has and sends wrong velocities or something like that and does not put this option until it makes it perfect. 

If you add these options soon for Yamaha and Korg it will be wonderful. Is the only thing that stops me from buying Varranger2. Till then thank you for your answers and sorry for my complicated questions.

For the first part I am ok but I am very disappointed with your other two answers about yamaha and korg !!!
An arranger with only GM support is like yamaha psr8000  ang korg i30 models 15 years ago. All the modern technology arrangers are based on velocity layering sounds like megavoices and RX sounds.  I did not even know if your ketron engine supports the wha wha and other fx in the lower and upper octaves of the guitar sf2 's.
By the way I am really sorry that i have to wait to add those options in the  future to the Varranger2 or 3.
And to be honest it was good that i asked those questions because i thought that Varranger2 supports these futures. I use them with omb and kontakt and other sf2 players seven years now, but  i want a more appealing and compact all in one solution like yours.   

Very good so far!! I have only a few more questions.
Has vAsynth separate channels in the rithm parts for each soundfont and if yes can i put on the top of each channel at least one different vst effect ?
Can Varranger play correctly tyros 4 mega sounds through vAsynth if i support it with the right sound fonts, for example the "Live styler Tyros4 sf2" ? I ask this because i did not hear any demo with yamaha styles which make use of mega voices and specially mega guitars and mega bases. By the way live styler 15 does not play them right specially the basses, sends wrong velocities. I try them with omb and kontakt and the result was better. what about Varranger2 ?
Also korg rx voices are supported through the styles if you have the right sound fonts ? I have sampled a lot of them my self from pa2x.

Oh very nice then if you can decrypt these files let me know in order to proceed  in  buying varranger2.
I also want you to explain me a little how things works with vAsynth and soundfonts.
You put them all in a specific folder you have said and varranger loads all of them in memory. And what about Msb lsb and program changes, how vAsynth figures out them?
I must  reprogram each soundfont's header or you do it with "txt" or "ini" file that i must configure? For example livestyler uses a Scriptfile called "sd2.mega" with all those definitions.
Also if you can not decrypt them but you have the same version of this SD2 sf2 set without encryption and you can send me for free with buying Varranger2 its the same for me.

Hello Dan, the memory is not a problem because all of them (the livestyler SD2 sf2) are 1.6gb.
I send you two of them to try. Keep in mind that if they wont load up in varranger you can try them in kontakt to hear how they are sounding like, in order to figure out the problem and if there is a solution. Thanks in advance !

Hello Lylo , I tried Live Styler SD2 sf2 with Samplelord 1.5.6 but it does not load them. From the other hand it loads and plays well all the Live styler Tyros4 sf2 , that i had bought also in the past. You use "Ketron SD2 sf2" or "Tyros sf2" ?

I am an owner of SD2 sample set from Live styler and my question is if it is really tested and is working with varranger 's synth module.
I am asking that because i test these soundfonts with every sountfont player and neither recognized or if recognized ( like in kontakt5 ) they sounds very noizy and crappy!!
In LiveStyler15 "SD2 sample set" sounds right without noize. I think they are encoded. If I can use them (SD2 sample set from Live styler) with varranger i will consider seriusly of  buying varranger2.
