This guide covers product installation only. Please see the folder “Manuals” on the Installation CD for full product documentation.
Note: The Installation CD includes both the M-Audio Key Rig as well as the M-Audio Drum and Bass Rig installers. The Key Rig package includes a certification code for only the M-Audio Key Rig, but you may authorize the Drum and Bass Rig as a fully working 30-day demo version (see below for Certification Information).
Windows:
1.Insert the M-Audio Key Rig CD-ROM in your computer’s CD-ROM drive.
2.Explore the CD and double-click the file named “M-Audio Key Rig Setup.” The installer will execute.
3.During the installation, the installer will ask you to specify two directories on your computer. The first directory is your VST plug-in directory. This is where the M-Audio Key Rig VST plug-in will be installed. The second directory is Key Rig’s sound data file. The file is about 260 MB in size and can be placed in a different location from the program, if necessary.
