To do that you must have ASIO drivers installed.
If u do not have that installed already you can download a demo of Cubase which should include those drivers.

Then u have to choose the drivers in fruity as shown in the picture:



After that is up and running just choose which effect channel u'd like to use for the synth. Then click on the box with the red circle around it and choose which line input u'd like to use.



When that is done you should be able to hear the synth in side fruity and be able to add VST effects to it.
But be aware that you need a fast computer and a good soundcard to get it running smoothly. My SB Live doesn't cut it.

I hope this helps a bit.
Good luck!

ASIO

ASIO (Audio Stream Input/Output), developed by Steinberg, is a cross-platform, multi-channel audio transfer protocol that is being adopted by many of the manufacturers of audio/MIDI sequencing applications. It allows software to have access to the multi-channel capabilities of a wide range of powerful sound cards.

ASIO expands on the basic capabilities of a standard computer sound card, most of which can only provide stereo (two-channel) audio input and output. The ASIO specification defines the interface that manufacturers of professional audio sound cards must use to create an ASIO driver for their hardware. This driver allows the host audio/MIDI application to "see" all of the inputs and outputs available on the sound card. The user can then assign these I/O ports as needed for recording or playback when using an ASIO-compatible software program. This allows the users to record more tracks simultaneously than the previous limitation of two channels imposed by a standard sound card
