Everything you see moving on screen is an interactive element. In addition, there are hidden interactive elements to explore, though frEQout Tokyo demo mix will run irrespective of whether you supply any input or not. And that's it - the rest is entirely up to you. Have fun...
Installation notes:
frEQout really puts a PC through its paces. Video and audio systems are pushed to their extremes. Of even more importance to performnce though is the data throughput rate of the PC's playback device. frEQout is designed to run off Quad speed CD-ROM drives, but for best possible performnce, copy our folder to your hard drive and run frEQout from there.
Recommended minimum playback requirements:
486/50 MHz
4X CDROM drive OR 40Mb of free hard disk space
8 MB RAM
Sound card
video 640x480 resolution, 256 colors.
If you're using a dual-speed CD-ROM drive:
Copy our folder to your hard drive and run frEQout from there
If frEQout won't run at all:
This may be due to conflicting software running at the same
time. In particular, any networking software. Remove startup items from your startup folder and restart Windows. frEQout makes no alteration to your Windows system files.
You may not have sufficient free memory - frEQout needs 4Mbs of free RAM as an absolute minimum
If you get no sound:
Make sure your sound set up is hooked up, powered on and has its volume turned up. If you can play a game and hear the sound okay then frEQout should work just fine.
If you get poor sound:
To meet the capabilities of a range of entry-level souncards we have used 22KHz, 8-bit, mono audio in this demo version.
