Seeking Mandolin soft-synth patch

Hey all, I know I saw earlier a mandolin patch somewhere contained in one of the soft-synth options dddin my Sonar Platinum; like about 30 minutes ago.  Wasn't ready to use it, but now I need it and I can't find it.

Can anyone point me to one in Platinum?  I've looked in every soft synth, including Rapture, Cakewalk Sound Center, and Dimension Pro.  I know it was under "ethnic instruments" or something like that.

=============================
Sonar Platinum;  running on Lenovo IBM Thinkpad T520, with Win 10-Pro, CPU: i7 @2.50GHz & 64bit, 8 GB Ram, 2TB HDD for data (@5400rpm - yeah I know - will upgrade to 7200), 250MB SSD for Windows & programs.  Also running a Behringer X(R)18 (Xair) [18x18] mixing board and two midi controllers (so far): Yamaha PSR-E243 & Alesis DM7X, all via USB 2.0.

That's the one that comes up with 15 pianos and a drum set?

If so, how do you select new patches? I poked at every likely looking button and could not figure out out.

With the TTS1 Synth Rack open (so you can see the 16 sliders etc) left click where it says 'Piano 1' next to the slider
Click Preset, Guitar, then you should see Mandolin in the list
(Or you can use the patch browser button for the midi track and find it that way)
 
Also, DimensionPro has a 'Bouzouki' patch (not sure how good it is) - but a Bouzouki is basically a large mandolin, so playing that in a higher register would probably be very similar....
 
Hope that helps!

Beautiful; thanks.  I must have accidently clicked in the right spot as I was groping around and found my way in.  It was getting late, etc. etc. etc.
