 # Simple Tkinter GUI
-Since Tkinter is packaged with Python 3.9 for Windows you should be able to run this example with nothing more than
-Python on your system.
+No dependencies required, Tkinter should come packaged with Python 3.9+.
+This is a demonstartion app with very limited control, showing strips across all three versions.
 
-This app demonstrates strips only across all three Voicemeeter versions with very limited control.
-
-### Notes
+### Use
 Ensure VBAN is enabled and the TEXT incoming stream is configured and ON.
-Since the vbancmd interface implements both the TEXT sub protocol and the RT Packet service it's possible that an incorrect configuration
-may result in odd behaviour, such as getters working but setters not. For example, you may see the levels change but be unable to effect
-the gain sliders when moving them.
+
+Set the kind_id, ip, streamname and port in the code.
+
+From current examples\gui directory 
+```python
+python .
