SUPERIOR Drummer version 2.3.0
The instructions enclosed in this document cover software installation.
Please refer to the instructions that came with your product if you have not yet installed the Sound library.
We recommend your read these instructions in full.
Before you install this product, you will need to decide which host application you would like to use it with.
- If your computer is running a version of Windows made for 32 bit processors
(regardless of which CPU type it may be equipped with) then double click
the Superior 32 bit Installer included in this archive and follow the on-screen
instructions, making sure to point the installer to the dedicated VST plugins
folder your host is using (or use the suggested path and add it to your host plug-in manager after the installation has taken place).
- If your computer is running a version of Windows made for 64 bit processors (in which case your CPU will necessarily be 64 bit capable) then the installer you need to run will depends on the host program "memory addressing" capability.
If your host is running natively as a 64 bit application, then you should use the Superior 64 bit Installer included in this archive and follow the on-screen instructions. If, on the other hand, it is running as a 32 bit application on top of a 64 bit Windows operating system, then locate the Superior 32 bit Installer and follow the on screen instructions.
If all of the above seems like hard work, and you are unsure what operating system or host build type you are running, simply run both Installers and the Installers will either let you go through with the install process or notify you that your procesor type is not appropriate. It is not a problem for you to have the 64 bit version installed even if your host can't make use of it, or vice versa, so feel free to install both, as far as you choose a diferent target directory to receive the plugin component (the default suggestions will ensure this is the case)!
The important thing is to choose the target directory for the plugin carefully, or, if accepting the default destination, to make a note of it, so you may add it your to your host plugin manager later on. This is important as your host need to know where to look for plugin extensions or you won't be able to use them! Please refer to your host application manual for details about installing VST plugins.
Note that, currently, Avid ProTools is only available as a 32 bit application, so, regardless of operating system, you will need to run the Superior 32 bit Installer. You can safely accept the default target directory - custom paths will likely lead to issues so do not select a different install location unless instructed to do so by an Avid representative.
IMPORTANT NOTE: A revised manual is available from the Help Menu inside the software as well as the Download Area of your Toontrack account. This later edition supersedes the manual included in the box.
