Installing VASTprogrammer

Installation of VP is actually very easy. Here are the basic steps.

Make sure you have a fairly recent version of the JRE (Java Runtime Environment). I am recommending the most recent version. Once the JRE is installed you can launch Java programs directly from the file browser or command line interface.

Prerequisites

A recent version of Java
MIDI hardware connection (IN & OUT) to your Kurzweil machine

Installation

Like many Java programs, VP is distributed as a JAR (Java ARchive) file. This JAR files contains all of the information necessary to run VP.

Download and install Java if you don't already have it
Download the VP from the download page
Unzip VP into a directory where you want it to live on your system

You should see the VP's JAR file, called vastp.jar, and a few other support files that you don't need to understand right now.

That's it! VP is now installed and ready to go.
