Universe

Setup & Installation

How do I get setup with Universe?

 

To install Red Giant Universe, follow these steps:

1. Close any host applications you plan on using Universe with (After Effects, FCP X, Resolve, Premiere, etc.)
2. Setup a Maxon ID if you haven't got one already
   • If you purchased Universe (or any other product) through our website, your Maxon ID is what you'd used prior to checkout.
3. Download the latest Universe installer.
4. Run the installer; it will automatically detect and install Universe into any compatible host applications it detects
   • Since there are a lot of presets, assets and plugins to instal this may take a few minutes
5. Log into Red Giant Application Manager using the Red Giant ID used to purchase your Universe membership

Universe needs a Maxon ID. What is that?

A Maxon ID is a login (email & password) used to access your Maxon account. Your Maxon account can be used to purchase products, track your order history, download installers, and track your support history.

You will need a Maxon ID to log into the Maxon Application and access your Red Giant Universe membership or start your Red Giant Universe trial.
