Waiting a while now studying online going through account processes remembering numerous passwords and information back and forth.  Coming from other competitive software I've lost the function of how to incorporate into the recognizable VST folder, so how does Sonar recognize XLN addictive drums?  I thought it is promising that in the bundle with Sonar Pro.  How may I bring up in a right click>insert instrument XLN addictive drums??

First you have to make sure that AD2 has a path in the VST Scan
section under "Edit" and then "Preferences" and the File Section, then "VST Settings" and
"VST scan path"
If you did not install it into the C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\VSTPlugins folder.
 
Then you will need to a rescan of the VST's.

Then you right click over the FX bin or click on the + sign in the FX
bin and go to "Insert Softsynth" (alternately go to the browser, select the "Synth" tab
at the top, click the white + sign, and navigate to Addictive Drums.  Once you've selected
it, you will select the properties you want for AD, and it will create a track with AD in it)
