## Important notes
- You need at least **Rainmeter 4.3 Beta (r3298) or higher** to get all features of this skin. You can find the newest version on https://www.rainmeter.net/
- After installation you can access the settings by right-clicking the visualizer or song information and then clicking on Open Settings.
- Due to limitations of Rainmeter the complete audio output of your system will be shown on the visualizer. For the best experience only play music. This is something I can’t fix.
## Installation
* Download the latest version here: [https://github.com/MarcoPixel/Monstercat-Visualizer/releases](https://github.com/MarcoPixel/Monstercat-Visualizer/releases)
* Install the skin by double-clicking the **.rmskin** file and follow the steps in the installer.
* After finishing the setup Rainmeter will open the settings skin where you can configure and customize the skin.
* You're done! 🎉
