I am arming the record button on each track, and assigning the VSTi using the FX button. I have tried many of the Input/Output setting on the tracks but I can't find the right settings to make them play.
If someone can help me get the settings right I would appreciate it.
Let me know if I need to post more info.
Thanks.

Synn, there's no need to arm record buttons in order to hear VSTi's play the midi files on track. After importing a multi-channel MIDI as seperate tracks, it should be enough to drag 'n drop VSTi's from the FX Browser on the various tracks to make them perform the song/MIDI sequences, after hitting the play button.
What VSTi's are you loading? Note that there will be a different MIDI channel on each track. Are these VSTi's that require selecting an input channel, or selecting a preset before producing any sound?
