I downloaded the free Digital Sound Factory Symphonic Strings files obtained as part of the pre-purchase package of Sonar X2.  Have all the sample files downloaded - probably a stupid question, but how do I use them?  Do I have to create a map manually or can they load into a synth?

It loads into Dimension Pro.....just open Dim Pro and the library should be there.

If they don't show up in Dim Pro - hit F5 to refresh DP's Browser (with the browser open!)

Got it, thanks!

do i need to extract into a specific folder. executed the package and they extracted to my downloads folder. opened dim pro and they are not there. I refreshed as mentioned above and still not there.

nevermind. figured it out.  It extracts files, and then you have to execute a .exe. good to know.
