Installation

Installation on PC

The Octopus comes with its own Installer. On the Octopus CD you will find

a file named OctopusInstaller.exe. Double-click on this file to begin the

installation process. The Installer will guide you through the installation

process. Make sure you choose the right directory, so your host software

finds the Octopus instrument.

Refer to your host software's manual if you are unsure about where the host

software plug-in directory is located.

The instrument file Octopus.DLL and the Octopus manual and presets will

be placed in the chosen directory. The next time you start your host

software the Octopus will be listed in the host software's Instrument list.

Installation on Mac

The Octopus comes with its own Installer. On the Octopus CD you will find

a file named Octopus Installer.dmg. Double-click on this file to open the

image, then double-click the installer program to begin the installation

process.

You will be guided through the installation process. The instrument file

Octopus and the Octopus presets will now be placed in the appropriate

directory for virtual instruments on your Mac. The next time you start your

host software the Octopus will be listed in the host software's Instrument

list.
