If you assigned a MIDI control to switch the sound, make sure it only affects the focussed instance (check the options while mapping the parameter in the MIDI Learn dialog).
Maybe try saving each sound as a Reaper preset at the top of the plugin window and switching that way.

Thanks for the reply, foxAsteria.
I am using Bitsonic Keyzone Classic (a very nice free virtual piano instrument).
I do not see what is not normal about wanting to mix several different sounds (presets) generated from the same plugin - it would be the same as using several mics. on the same live piano, or having three recordings of the same performance and wanting to apply different EQ to each of them in order to mix them together to get a richer sound.
Now, perhaps the way I am trying to accomplish this is unusual or wrong, so if there is a different way to try to accomplish this, I am all ears.
It is not the switching which is necessarily the problem here - I simply want to end up with three instances of the same track, but with each of those instances having one of the three piano presets applied to it, so that I can then mix them together.
I am just trying to be clear here about what I want to do, so at the risk of labouring the point, here is another way of explaining it.
Track 1 - Keyzone Piano preset
Track 2 - Steinway Piano Preset
Track 3 - Yamaha Grand Piano Preset
