This won't be something controlled by lily but rather is a 
soundbank/font thing you have to do with the player.  If you can't 
change the bank on either of your players (I think you can with the MS 
product but not sure) you'll need to get a midi player where you can set 
the sound bank to use the bank of soundfonts you want.
Hope this helps a little.
