2. Installation (Win & Mac)

Since this is a niche plugin, installation can sometimes be tricky depending on where you acquired it.

Step-by-Step:

  1. Download: Ensure you have the correct installer for your OS (Windows .exe/.msi or Mac .dmg/.pkg).
  2. Run Installer:
    • Windows: Follow the prompts. Choose your plugin format (VST3 is recommended, VST2 for older hosts).
    • Mac: You may need to go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy to allow the installer if it is from an unidentified developer.
  3. Scan Plugins: Open your DAW (FL Studio, Ableton, Pro Tools, etc.) and perform a plugin scan.
    • Note for Mac M1/M2/M3 users: Check if the version is Apple Silicon native. If it is not, you must run your DAW in "Rosetta Mode" to use it.
