importing Garritan VST synths

Hey all,
 
 I'd like to import the Garritan instrument library (from my Finale 2011) into Sonar X2.    I've been looking for tips and info on how to do this, but I haven't found very much info.    I'm sure you can do it, just wondered if anyone has tried it or something similar?
 
thnx, Ryan

    This is from a Garritan site FAQ page, and talks about the steps to use the instrument libraries with Sonar X1 (which should work for X2a as well):

    I hope that helps,

    Point Sonar's Plug-in manager to the folder that contains the VSTs (the .dll files) and then run a VST scan in Sonar. That should pull them in if they are standard VSTs.
