Should I try to play a MIDI track with Zynthian as a multi instrument expander (different instruments on different channels)? If I have such a setup: how can I store it? I think this isn'n implemented yet, or not?

You can create such a setup using the channel list and configuring different presets on each channel. This will work with the next Engines:

+ ZynAddSubFX
+ LinuxSampler
+ FluidSynth

With setBfree you have a fixed setup of 2 manuals (upper and lower) and pedals, arranged in channels 1, 2 and 3.

With Carla, the channel list doesn't work, but you can setup a MIDI splitter inside Carla and configure different plugins/effects in each channel or create more complex setups. No limits (well, CPU ;-).

You can only work with one engine at a time, but using Carla you can load all the engines as plugins ...
