Installing on Linux
===================

This download holds the plugin in two formats, and the standalone app.
Install any of them:

  VST3   Move the "Oroboro Modular.vst3" folder into ~/.vst3
         (or /usr/lib/vst3 for all users)

  CLAP   Move "Oroboro Modular.clap" into ~/.clap
         (or /usr/lib/clap for all users)

  App    "oroboro-modular" plays without a DAW: move it into ~/.local/bin (or
         anywhere on your PATH) and start it. It plays through ALSA (or
         PipeWire's and PulseAudio's ALSA plugins): pick the output and
         the MIDI input in its Settings, under Audio & MIDI.

After installing the plugin, let your DAW rescan its plugins. The plugin
and the app need an X11 or XWayland display, OpenGL and GTK 3 (for their
file dialogs), which desktop distributions come with.

Without a license the plugin runs as a demo: it plays every patch, but
editing and saving patches wait for a license. To activate it, click
DEMO MODE · ACTIVATE at the top right of the plugin window, then sign in to
oroboro.space, or Import License File... and choose the .license file from
your account.
