Are you certain you have loaded the sampleset?
 
It's kinda difficult to see how your routing is by that picture. Have you selected a specific midi channel for your miditrack(don't do this)?. Try to add a new midi track and set the output to AD2 and move the beats there. No more routing is necessary. 

ok, i can get the midi track to play GM stuff.
 
when i select AD2 i still get nothing.
 
when i browse the kits, they all say no license. from a youtube tute, it should load the preset by clicking it.
 
i thought i selected a few kits when i set this up with my purchase of Sonar Platinum.
 
thoughts and thanks for the help.

When you go into the XLN online installer , does it say "Everything is up to date"?

Yeah, it shouldn't say "no license" if you have installed and authorized it correctly. Be sure you download and install their "online Installer" app from their website then run that.

Glad you got it going.  Agreed, keeping track of all the 3rd party content provider's installation and authorization requirements is daunting sometimes.  Good thing is you only have to make these mistakes once.

Glad you are up and running. It is a nice piece of kit
All the best.
