Routing midi to a vst

Trying to demo the following plug-in to use an effect.
Vinyl Boy

As per their website:
How to use Vinyl Boy:
Open Vinyl Boy as an insert effect on the audio track that you want to scratch, then send MIDI data to Vinyl Boy (On cubase, for example, you do it by opening a MIDI track, and sending the output of that MIDI track to Vinyl Boy).

How do you do this Sonar?
How do you route midi data to a vst?
Routing to a vsti is a no-brainer for me but I've never tried routing to a vst.

    Open up the Plug-in Manager
    Find Vinyl Boy in the list in the middle column under VST Effects
    Open up its property page
    Change it to be a synth
    Add it in via the FX bin, but it'll appear under Synths rather than Effects

    Never realized that a synth can be inserted into a track's fx bin.
    That did the trick! Thanks so much for your help!

    Some synths will let you do that. I route things through the effects of Native Instruments B4 to get a leslie effect on vocals, guitars etc. It's a cool option for some vst's

    You can use Pentagon as a vocoder, if you insert it that way. It has some very useful patches for that purpose.

    I'm a perfectionist, and perfect is a skinned knee.

    I folowed your sugestions in Sonar 8. I used:
     
    1. Tools -> Cakewalk Plugin Manager
    2. Plugin Properties
    3. Config as a synth
    Then from the program menue I used:
    1. Insert->Soft Synths->VST Plugins->Vynl  Bo
    This brought up a menu for the output options. Which options are best to use and how do I used what Vinyl Boy called the modulation wheel to actually scratch?
     
    Help
