You can -- in my last project I had a LinuxSampler session where I'd 
simply loaded the same SFZ five times, with each instance going to 
separate JACK outputs. That meant that I had to split my MIDI data 
across five separate tracks so that I could send the kick drum to one 
set of outputs, the snare to another set, etc.

The other thing to consider is multiple mics. My scenario above is 
simplified a bit, because I actually had *ten* LinuxSampler instances -- 
the kit I was using came with close-mic and room-mic recordings, so I 
set up an instance of each for each drum so that I could balance the 
levels between the two versions independently for each drum.

Having multiple SFZ files available doesn't instantly solve these sorts 
of issues, but it does give you some options around how to handle them.

Thanks
