To begin, download the files. Although it is recommended that you download and become familiar with ChucK before launching LiLo, it is not required. The current version of LiLo includes a ChucK binary in its home directory.

After you've downloaded the files, open the directory. To launch the most basic version of LiLo, double-click the bash script titled LiLo. There are a couple of other versions of LiLo included in the download. To have access to Pitch Edit Mode, which allows you to transpose chunks in the pitch domain without altering their length, you must launch the script LiLo_5voices. This version of LiLo uses a custom build of ChucK that incorporates a multichannel version of the LiSa unit generator object. Running this version of ChucK will allow you to pitch shift individual voices, but keep in mind you'll be limited to five measly voices! [edit: this version temporarily unavailable until the multichannel LiSa object is released to the general public in a future version of ChucK]

To launch the version of LiLo built specially for PLOrk, double-click LiLo_for_PLOrk. The only real difference in this version is that it contains a window to receive text messages from the server (which can be launched by clicking either serverText or LiLoServer).

LiLo 1.0.1 was developed on Mac OS X 10.5.6, but will work on Intel Macs running Tiger. Currently, non-Mac versions are unavailable and untested. Sorry!
