WHAT IS REVALVER?
-----------------

ReValver is a DirectX plugin that can simulate a variety of Guitar
amplifiers and accessories. You can use ReValver in any DirectX 
compatible application. ReValver is also DXi compatible, and can be automated
via midi in any DXi compatible host (for example Sonar, Fruity Loops)


-----
USAGE
-----

Run your favorite waveform editor or multitracker being compatible
with DirectX plugins. ReValver will appear as a plugin in that program.
You can also launch 'ReValver Live' a free utility that comes with ReValver.

ReValver may appear as a "softsynth" if the host is DXi compatible.


------------
INSTALLATION
------------

Run the installation program Setup.exe and follow the instructions.
You can run the program either from the explorer, or from the 
'Start' menu selecting 'Run...'

The plugin should then appear in any DirectX-plugin compatible software.

Before a licensed version can be installed you must recieve a serial number
from your reseller. Only the evaluation version can be installed otherwise.


---------------
UN-INSTALLATION
---------------
In Controlpanel, choose 'Add / Remove programs' and select ReValver.
Some files that have been created after installation (temporary files, presets
etc...) may remain after un-installation, and they have to be removed
manually.



---------------
LIMITATIONS
---------------

This plugin can make your old amplifier look bad.
