Just bought/installed Mimic - where is it?

Lyn Buchanan

I just bought & installed Mimic. The installer said that it was installed, but when I went to Panes(Tabs), it wasn't there. I also bought the standalone Mimic Lite, but it is nowhere to be found on my computer. Can someone advise me how to get Mimic installed and how to find the Mimic Lite standalone program? Thanks.

The Mimic software is 32 bit only. You can install DS4.6 32 and 64 bit both. I do just for speach software. Unless the Item states 64 then check to see if you need to Register the Plugin in Help>About installed Plugins.

There is a version of Mimic lite built into DS 32 bit. I use it.

Thanks very much. The Mimic software had evidently installed but didn't show up on the panes list because I hadn't registered it yet. Thanks to your guidance, I found out how to do that through the help>plugins item on the help menu. I was wondering why there isn't any instructions given with the plug-in. If there are, then they must also be hidden - with no instructions as to how to find them.

Also, I found instructions as to how to use Mimic with a microphone as a video on YouTube, but can't find anywhere how to use an already recorded sound file as the input sound. Can you help me there? I really wish that the plugin came with instructions. Thanks again. It's up and running now - just need to find some way to learn to use it without bothering you over and over.

I'm sorry but as I said I only use the Light version that is built into DAZ Studio 32 bit. I learned how to use it from the Free DAZ Studio manual posted for download. You should check the Read me for Mimic Full, maybe it will explain how or where the dox are installed or used.
