System Requirements
Windows 

 

 

 

 Recommend Requirements 

 

 

 

 

 Windows 11 or above 

 Intel or AMD Quad Core or above CPU 

 16GB RAM 

 Onboard GPU or dedicated GPU

 

 If using more than 1 external display, a dedicated GPU is recommended 

 

 

 Some sort of audio output such as: 

 

 Dedicated audio interface 

 USB Digital to Audio Converter 

 Onboard audio output (e.g. 3.5mm headphone out, line out etc)

 

 NOTE: A large number of desktop and laptop computers do not ground their onboard audio outputs properly. This creates a 'humming' noise through the audio cable. So if you choose to use the onboard headphone jack / line out jack to go into your audio mixer, and you get a humming noise, this is why.
