KikAXXE Quick Start Guide

This guide is intended to help you install your software quickly. In order to achieve optimal usage

of your new KikAXXE software, we recommend that you carefully study the product manual found

on the CD (“Manuals” folder), either before or after completing the process described in this

guide.

Windows Installation:

1 Insert the Way Out Ware KikAXXE CD-ROM in your computer’s CD-ROM drive.

2. Explore the CD and double-click the file named “KikAXXE Setup.” The installer will

execute.

3. During the installation, the installer will ask you to specify the VST plug-in directory.

This is where the KikAXXE VST plug-in will be installed. In addition to this directory,

the standalone version will be installed into your Program Files directory, and the RTAS

version will be placed in the proper location for Pro Tools to access it.

4. When the installer finishes installing the software, press “Finish.”

5. Way Out Ware’s KikAXXE is now installed on your computer. You will need to certify

your copy of the software before you begin making music.

6. To certify the KikAXXE, please start the standalone version of the program.

The default location is

“C:/Program Files/Way Out Ware/KikAXXE/KikAXXE.exe.” Please see the “Certification”

section below for further directions.

Macintosh Installation:

1. Insert the Way Out Ware KikAXXE CD-ROM in your computer’s CD-ROM drive.

2. Double-click the CD that appears on your desktop.

3. Click on the KikAXXE Installer Icon and follow the steps of the installer.

4. When the installer finishes installing the software, press “Quit.”

5. Way Out Ware’s KikAXXE is now installed on your computer. You will need to certify

your copy of the software before you begin making music.

6. To certify the KikAXXE, please start the standalone version of the program located in

your Application Folder called “KikAXXE.” Please see the “Certification” section below

for further directions.

Certification (Windows and Macintosh):

1. During the startup process of the program, a dialog will appear with three options: “Try,”

“Authorize,” or “Quit.”

2. Click on the “Authorize” Button.

3. The Way Out Ware KikAXXE supports the iLok key. If you have an iLok key and want the

KikAXXE Authorization to be stored on your iLok, ensure your iLok key is inserted in your

USB port and check the option labeled “Use my iLok smart key.” Otherwise, uncheck

the “Use my iLok smart key” option. Click the “Next” button after you have made your

selection.

4. If you selected “Use my iLok smart key” you must uncheck the item labeled “Use license

card” and click “Next.”

5. At this point, you have two choices: You may certify your product online or offline. If your

computer is connected to the Internet, go to the section named “Certify Online” below.

If your music computer is not connected to the Internet, go to the “Certify an Offline

Computer” section below.
