32    <h3>1.&nbsp; Introduction</h3>
33    The LinuxSampler development team is happy to announce that
34    LinuxSampler, the most advanced free, open source sampler finally runs on
35    MS Windows too. More information will be added here soon, so check back frequently.<br>
36    <br>
37    For now the sampler supports the Windows Multimedia Extensions System (MME)
38    for MIDI input and ASIO for audio out. This means it currently runs only
39    as a standalone application. A VST interface will follow soon, along with
40    a network module to run multiple sampler slaves distributed on Windows or
41    Linux machines (Linux provides better performance) all controlled from a
42    Windows box i.e. running the VST sequencer.<br>

88    about your results so we can share them here!

90    <a name="install_w_inet"></a>
91    <h3>3.a&nbsp; Installation with Internet Connection</h3>
92    Simply download the latest version of the LinuxSampler Windows installer
93    from the <a href="http://www.linuxsampler.org/downloads.html">LinuxSampler
94    Download Page</a>, execute the installer and follow the instructions. It will
95    automatically detect if the required software components are already installed.
96    If not, it will download them from the internet and install them on your
97    computer.
98    
99    <a name="install_wo_inet"></a>
100    <h3>3.b&nbsp; Installation without Internet</h3>
101    First download the required components with a machine which has connection to
102    the internet:
103    <ul>
104      <li><a href="http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gladewin32/gtk-2.10.11-win32-1.exe?modtime=1175123376&big_mirror=0">gtk+ 2.10.11</a></li>
105      <li><a href="http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/gtkmm/2.10/gtkmm-win32-runtime-2.10.11-1.exe">gtkmm 2.10.11</a></li>
106      <li><a href="http://www.java.com/getjava/">Java Runtime Environment 6</a></li>
107      <li>and of course the latest <a href="http://www.linuxsampler.org/downloads.html">
108         LinuxSampler Windows installer</a></li>
109    </ul>
110    Transfer the downloaded files to the computer where you want to install
111    LinuxSampler and install them in the following order:
112    <ol>
113      <li>gtk-2.10.11-win32-1.exe</li>
114      <li>gtkmm-win32-runtime-2.10.11-1.exe</li>
115      <li>jre-6u2-windows-i586-p.exe</li>
116      <li>linuxsampler_20071207_setup.exe</li>
117    </ol>
118    The order is important, since the components depend on each other and would
119    otherwise try to download the missing component from the internet.
120    
121    <a name="using"></a>
122    <h3>4.&nbsp; Using the Applications</h3>
123    Now that we installed everything, let's get wet and start the applications:
124    <ol>
125      <li>First start the LinuxSampler backend: Click on <i>"Start" ->
126          "LinuxSampler" -> "LinuxSampler 0.5.1 (backend)"</i>. A black console
127          window should immediately popup. It does what you think it does:
128          nothing ... yet ... because this is "just" the raw sampler, without a
129          user interface.</li>
130      <li>Now start a "frontend" application to actually control the previously
131          started sampler. For beginners and / or unpatient people, we recommend
132          you to use JSampler: Click on <i>"Start" -> "LinuxSampler" ->
133          "JSampler 'Fantasia' 0.8a (frontend)"</i>. This usually takes about
134          20 seconds or so until the application finally appears on the
135          screens.</li>

140    <h3>4.1&nbsp; Setting up MIDI Input</h3>
141    Once the GUI opens, click on the left round button in the MIDI devices
