Cannot 'see' audio output from VST instrument (NI Fast EI2XT)

Greetings, everyone. I could be considered an oldtimer newbie, having dabbled in hobby music production for over 40 years but being new to Sonar products (more of a Reason user).
 
Not quite sure where to get help for the issue I'm facing, having gone through tutorials & manuals which are clear to understand but don't solve my problem:
 
Running X1 Studio on Windows 7 64bit. I have a project that includes a NI VST (Fast EI 2XT) as a soft synth. This VST features a loop player that is synced to the project tempo. I can hear the audio output of the VST when the project plays. I now wish to record this audio output as an audio track in real time, so to speak - but can't figure out how to acheive this. Note there is no MIDI output from the VST, nor is the VST controlled via a MIDI controller.
 
I've read about the boucing and freezing options, but since the track is 'empty' there is nothing to freeze and/or bounce.
 
I've tried adding an audio track, where said VST's audio output is selected as an input but  there is no metering/ signal when playing back.
 
Surely this is not rocket science and I'm doing something basic wrong - so any input is much appreciated.

In the Bounce dialog there is a checkbox for "Live Input" that can only be accessed if you are doing a real time bounce.
I think that this will enable you to bounce while the VST is doing its thing, though I must admit I haven't used it myself!
 
Strange thing is that if you click on Help in the bounce dialog, it explains every check box except the "live input" box.

It didn't need "live input" - I just solo'ed said part and used the Master Output to bounce to a new audio track via the Bounce dialogue.
Many thanks for your input, Brian, you've been a great help indeed!
