Thanks for the reply. I was talking about the programming side of DirectMusic... I can't see a way to create instruments with a wave sample, without loading any MIDI or DLS files.

You can build the instruments inside DirectMusic Producer, from samples that you load. You can even export DLS instruments from DirectMusic Producer, and use them in other programs that support the DLS format.
