Chapter 1: Getting Started
Installing Auto-Tune EFX
Auto-Tune EFX is designed to work with a wide variety of digital audio applications.
Please refer to your host application’s user manual for more information on installing
and using plug-ins. (Although in most cases, simply double-clicking the Auto-Tune
EFX installer and following the resulting directions will be all you need to do.)
Authorizing Auto-Tune EFX
Authorization is the process by which Auto-
Tune EFX is allowed to permanently run on
your computer. Detailed instructions covering
the available authorization options will be found
in the file “Authorization Read Me” which is
included with your software download.
NOTE:
When initially installed,
this software will run for ten
days without authorization.
So even if you can‘t authorize it right away you
can still use your software in the meantime.
(During this period, click the “Continue”
button whenever you are presented with
the Trial Period screen at launch.) But don’t
procrastinate too long. After those ten days
are up you will no longer be able to launch
Auto-Tune EFX until it’s authorized.
Auto-Tune EFX authorization requires an
iLok USB smart key. If you already own
other audio plug-ins, you probably already
have one. If not, they can be purchased
from many local music stores as well as
most online music technology retailers.
