B4 II – 7

Installation under Windows XP

Software Installation

• Insert the B4 II CD into the CD drive.
• Use the Windows Explorer to view the contents of the CD.
• Start the installation by double-clicking B4 II Setup.exe.
• The setup program will suggest C:\Program Files\Native Instruments\

Product Name\ as the path for the destination folder. You may also
choose another folder if you wish.

Installed Folders, Files, and Links

The setup program creates a new folder called

B4 II\ in the installation directory

(

Program Files\Native Instruments). This folder contains the files required to

operate the software. If you do not choose a different program group during
the installation, links to the Product and a ReadMe file are added to the

Start

menu under

Programs/Native Instruments.

VST plug-in Installation

• Insert the Installation CD into the CD drive.
• Use the Windows Explorer to view the contents of the CD. To start,

double-click the

B4 II Setup.exe file.

• When the choice is given by the installer, select VST plug-in from the

list of components to install.

• You can now choose to automatically search for the VST plug-in folder

or manually select the VST plug-in folder of your choice. Please select
the option that best suits your installation requirements.

Note: If more than one host program for VST 2.0 plug-ins is installed
on your computer, the installer lets you install to multiple VST-folders
by shift-clicking them. If you decide to install them at a later date,
simply copy the “

B4 II VST.dll” file into the VST plug-ins folders of

these programs. Windows: If the VST plug-in files are not visible in
the Windows Explorer, select the

Show All Files option. This option is

located in the Explorer menu

ViewFolder Options... on the View tab

below

Hidden Files. Optionally, you can set up your programs so that

they all use the same VST plug-ins folder.
