afaik, it's not a standalone application. you need a host (or daw) to run it in.

Er.. I don't think there is a Zebra 2 standalone version? I believe you need to use a host that can use vst/au plugins.

You need a host to run Zebra. Garageband will work. If you don't have Garageband, you can use VST Lord to open Zebra2.vst. Get VST Lord here:

With VST Lord you will need a keyboard of some kind. MIDI Keys is a software MIDI keyboard:

Thank you for your reply, Im not sure how to get a host/daw to do that! Would I be able to host it with mainstage2 or logic 9?

Yes Logic 9 can do it. Create a new instrument track then insert Zebra 2 in the input tab, above the volume fader and right on top of the output tab. Here's a picture

Hey, I don't see zebra on the list when trying to create a new instrument in logic 9. Do you know why? Maybe I have it in the wrong folder! Im not sure why!

From the Finder, hold down the Shift-Command-G keys ... a dialog box will appear ... enter the following location:

/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components

this is where you AU plug-ins are installed - you should see Zebra2.component if your installation was performed correctly.
