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.

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