What’s New

If you’re familiar with the first version of Kombinat, here are the main differences in version 2:

Five new distortion engines, for even more ways to destroy your signals

A feedback loop that sends the output back into its input, creating strange new tones and oscillations

A complete visual makeover—no more squint-inducing labels on buttons

New presets; old factory presets have names starting with “OG”

Because of these changes, and other changes under the hood, Kombinat Dva cannot load presets and settings
created with the previous version of Kombinat. However, all of the distortion methods and other features of
the first version are present in the new version. You can recreate all of your existing settings with the new
version, but you’ll have to do so by hand. The new version and the old version are distinct plug-ins from your
host program’s point of view. You can have both installed on the same system at the same time, and you can
use both within the same project. The new version is named Kombinat_Dva, “dva” being Russian for two.

System Requirements

To use Kombinat, you'll need a Steinberg VST-compatible host application which conforms to the VST 2.0
specifications, and a computer capable of running it. For the AudioUnit version of Kombinat, you’ll need an
application capable of hosting AudioUnit plug-ins, and an Apple computer with an Intel CPU capable of running
it. We support the use of Kombinat under Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, or Windows 7; and Apple OS X version
10.5 or newer. All formats of Kombinat are available as both 32- and 64-bit binaries.

Installation

Double-click the Kombinat Installer icon and follow the instructions. During the installation process the
installer will ask you to enter your registration code. Your registration code uniquely identifies your purchase,
and you will need it if you need to reinstall your plug-in (for example, after upgrading to a new computer).
Keep a copy of the code in a safe location and please don’t share it with your friends. We’re delighted if you
like our products so much that you want to share them, but please ask your friends to buy their own copy so
that we can keep making new products.

To un-install from OS X, simply delete the plug-in from your VST folder, which is usually located at
/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/,

and your AudioUnits folder, which is located at /Library/Audio/Plug-

Ins/Components/.

To un-install from Windows, simply delete the plug-in from your VST folder, which is

usually located at C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VstPlugins.
