Installation
------

Step 1 — Copy the files
------

VST3 plug-in:
Use VST3 with DAWs that load VST3 plug-ins, such as Ableton Live, Cubase, Nuendo, Studio One, REAPER, Bitwig Studio, FL Studio, and Waveform.
Copy Neural Analog.vst3 to C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\.
The same installed file exposes Neural Analog as both an audio effect and an instrument.

Step 2 — Windows security warning, if one appears
------

Windows Defender or Microsoft SmartScreen may show a warning the first time you open the standalone app.
If this happens, review the warning and choose the option that allows Neural Analog to run, then open the app again.

Step 3 — Restart, rescan, and enjoy
------

Restart your DAW or plug-in host after installing or updating a plug-in.
Rescan plug-ins if Neural Analog does not appear automatically.
Load Neural Analog as a standalone app, VST3, or AAX depending on your install.

Note for FL Studio and some other DAWs: if .m4a is not supported, click the gear icon next to Export and select FLAC or MP3 as the default streaming format.

Enjoy!

Update to a newer version — copy/paste commands
------

Close the standalone app and any DAW or plug-in host before updating.
Extract the new download, open PowerShell as Administrator in that extracted folder, and copy/paste the commands for the file included in your download.
For the standalone app, these commands use the recommended LocalAppData installation folder. If you installed the .exe somewhere else, replace that copy instead.

VST3 plug-in:
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$env:CommonProgramFiles\VST3\Neural Analog.vst3" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Copy-Item -Recurse -Force ".\Neural Analog.vst3" "$env:CommonProgramFiles\VST3\Neural Analog.vst3"

After updating, reopen your DAW and force a plug-in rescan if the previous version is still shown.
