Instrument keeps switching?

Note - I have only been using Scratch for about a day. Having said that, I think I've found a bit of a glitch. I was making a little song on Scratch, and I had one instrument part at the same time as another. Guitar and harmonica. It starts off fine, but then the harmonica part changes to guitar. Or the other way around. Can someone help?

Re: Instrument keeps switching?

I think that a sprite can only handle one instrument at a time. Try creating two sprites (Or a sprite and the stage) and have one of them play one of the instuments and have the other play the other instrument.

Re: Instrument keeps switching?

You're using the "Set instrument" block, correct? I imagine that if you had more than one script running, it could be switching back and forth because of conflicts using that block. Does that sound like it could be the problem?
