RUNNING AMPLIFIKATION 360
As a standalone app:
Running Amplifikation 360 as a standalone app is as simple as double clicking the icon on your Desktop, from the Start Menu on Windows, or from
the Applications folder on your Mac. Amplifikation 360 requires no additional software to run.
As a plugin:
In most DAWs, you only need to load Amplifikation 360 on any available insert slot. Some other DAWs allow you to run the plugin from the menu
bar; for example in Cubase from Audio/Plug-Ins menu, or in Pro Tools from Audiosuite menu. Please consult your DAWs user manual for detailed
instructions.
