Kengeki

System requirements

Other DAWs (Studio One, Reaper, Ableton Live, and so on) have not been verified. Kengeki behaves as a standard VST3 instrument.

Install on Windows

1. Unzip the archive into a folder.

2. Double-click install.bat (it requests administrator rights). The VST3 is placed in:

   C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\Mewlist\
   

3. The Standalone (Kengeki.exe) can be copied anywhere from the bundle and run — no installer needed.

4. To install the factory presets, run install_presets.bat. The preset XMLs go to:

   %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Kengeki\Presets\
   

5. Rescan plug-ins in your DAW.

Install on macOS

Unzip the archive and run, in Terminal:

chmod +x install_mac.sh
./install_mac.sh

The VST3 and the Standalone are placed at:

VST3       → ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/
Standalone → /Applications/

The Gatekeeper quarantine attribute is cleared automatically.

You can install the factory presets separately:

chmod +x install_presets.sh
./install_presets.sh

The preset XMLs go to:

~/Documents/Kengeki/Presets/

After it finishes, rescan plug-ins in your DAW.

macOS (manual install)

Copy Kengeki.vst3 to:

~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/

Then, in Terminal, clear the quarantine attribute yourself:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/Kengeki.vst3

Uninstall

Kengeki does not use the Windows registry.
