Please help showing Microsoft Kernel synthesizer in MIDI devices

Reason :
Because it sounds much better than the Microsoft wavetable synthesizer (whitch supports only DLS1)
The Kernel synthesizer supports DLS2 and it would be great to have it listed in the Midi Devices.
Right now, the only access to it, is through the DXDIAG -> Music -> Test.
or through programming directmusic.
Hope someone knows how.

Thank you.

Are you sure on this?

Quote:

By default, DirectMusic uses the Microsoft software synthesizer, which supports DLS Level 2.
Note The DLS Level 1 synthesizer used with the DirectX 7 interfaces contains reverberation capabilities, which are on by default. The Waves TrueVerb reverberation technology is licensed to Microsoft Corporation as the SimpleVerb implementation.
The DLS Level 2 synthesizer used with later interfaces does not contain built-in reverberation capabilities. Reverberation is instead implemented as a DirectX Media Object. Waves MaxxVerb is licensed to Microsoft Corporation for this purpose.
