The easiest way of getting the software is to download the torrent file for the latest official SD card image from here:
Download Zynthian "Gorgona Omega" SD-image, configured for Kits v2 Download Zynthian "Gorgona Omega" SD-image, configured for Kits v1
It's a 8GB compressed image file (plenty of soundfonts) compiled for Raspberry Pi 3. (Please, keep feeding the torrent after downloading!)
These SD card images include all the Zynthian software, properly configured for working with the official kits. Completely ready to use. Plug and play!
After downloading the SD-image, you have to write it to a SDcard. You need a SD card with a minimum size of 16GB, although you can use a bigger one if you want.
Use Etcher (free software works on Mac, Windows or Linux) to write the image onto the SDcard. Or do it manually! There is a really good manual for this at this link.
Finally, if you like, you can build your own SD image following these instructions:
