Quick start
The installer will copy the FabFilter Twin 2 plug-in into the common VST/VST3, AU (OS X only), RTAS and AAX plug-in folders on your computer. On OS X, the global plug-in folders in /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins are used.
In most cases, your host will then recognize the plug-in automatically. However,
if the instructions below do not work, see Manual
installation instead.
- Cubase
Open the VST Instruments panel, click on an empty slot and select FabFilter
Twin from the menu that appears. Right-click in the list of tracks and choose Add MIDI Track to create
a new MIDI track and assign it to the new FabFilter Twin 2 instrument.
- Logic
Create an Audio Instrument track in the arrange window and select FabFilter
Twin 2 as the input and choose a preferred output. You will find FabFilter Twin
2 in the Audio Units -> FabFilter section (named FF Twin 2).
- Ableton Live
In Session view, select the track you would like to place FabFilter Twin 2 on, for example by clicking
the track name. At the left top of Ableton Live's interface, click on the Plug-in Device Browser icon
(third icon from the top). From the plug-ins list, double-click FabFilter/FabFilter Twin 2, or drag it
onto the track.
- Pro Tools
Create a new stereo instrument track and add FabFilter Twin 2 as the first insert.
Use the Presets button at the top of the plug-in interface to try different settings from the many factory presets that are bundled with FabFilter Twin 2. Have fun!
