-For a first install you'll have to download the installer %newwin% [[https://bluehell.nl/wren/Installer.exe | this link]] and then run the installer - you'll get the option to do a full Wren install from it. Do not put the installer in a µsoft owned folder, at least I did not test that.
+For a first install you'll have to download the installer from the [[download | download page]].
-For an update of an existing Wren you can follow the instructions for the pre-release.
+  * For installation of a pre-release see [[Wren/PreRelease | how to use a pre-release]].
 There are still some things to be aware of :
-  * You must NOT install Wren in a µsoft owned folder, so not in 'Program Files', 'downloads', 'my documents' and not on the desktop either), the installer may start Wren after it is done installing.
+  * You must NOT install //Wren// in a [[ non_windows_folder | µsoft owned folder]], so not in 'Program Files', 'downloads', 'my documents' and not on the 'desktop' either), the installer may start //Wren// after it is done installing.
-  * On a first start of a new version the program will write out some help files. This may look a bit messy, it will only happen once when a new Wren version is run for the first time (and it can be disabled if wanted).

-For a quick test you could drag in an oscillator module (Osc) and an output module (AudioOut). You can use Ctrl+F to find these modules quickly (they are on the first (I/O, pick the speaker symbol there) and second (Osc1, pick the leftmost sine symbol there) selector tab respectively).

-Turn down your volume a bit, as this may be loud otherwise, then connect the Osc's output at the bottom right corner to the AudioOut L 1 R inputs.
+Turn down your volume a bit, as this may be loud otherwise, then connect the Osc's output at the bottom right corner to the AudioOut's leftmost two inputs. Also see the [[faq#about_inputs_and_outputs | FAQ - ins and outs]].
-Next hit F9, you should have sound now and the output level meter in strip 1 on the right side of the screen should indicate this. Hitting F9, again will stop the sound.
+Next hit ''F9'', you should have sound now and the output level meter in strip 1 on the right side of the screen should indicate this. Hitting ''F9'', again will stop the sound.
