for Windows:

  1. Check for your windows system folder (C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM for Windows 98/ME, C:\WINDOWS\system32 for Windows XP, C:WINNT\system32 for Windows 2000) and search msvcr70.dll. You can browse the folder with explorer, or use explorer's search button or any other way you like.
  2. If not found, copy msvcr70.dll (bundled with the product puckage) to the system folder (do nothing if you found one).

About msvcr70.dll (Windows)

Exciton requires Microsoft shared library msvcr70.dll. It is bundled in the newest version of Windows and other recently released applications. But it might not have been installed in your Windows system yet.

You should not erase msvcr70.dll even if you want to uninstall Exciton. msvcr70.dll is a common public shared library. Number of other softwares are probably sharing this file.

About Plugin Folders (Windows)

Plugin folders depend on host applications. For example, Steinberg Cubase SX/SL and Emagic Logic have Vstplugins folder in the host application folder. You can copy Exciton2.dll to Vstplugins folder to install a plugin. If you have two or more VST host softwares and each hosts have Vstplugins folders, you can copy Exciton2.dll to the every of them.

Some other VST host applications (FLstudio, etc.) use a different way. They do not have a default "VST plugins" folder. On the other hand, you can specify your "VST plugins" folder and scan plugins. You can place VST plugins anywhere you like on your PC. It is a useful way when you uses multiple VST hosts.

On Windows, host applications are using defferent methods to install VST plugins. Please refer to the manual of your host application for its detail.

for Macintosh:

  1. Check if a host application (typically Cubase or Logic) is running. If it is running, quit it.
  2. Copy Exciton2 Demo plugin file to Vstplugins folder of the host application.
