Computer minimum reQuirements

Powerful software for audio recording requires a powerful computer with the right operating system software, processor, memory, and hard drive space. Most computers currently sold already meet these requirements, or can be upgraded to be compatible with the Lexicon Lambda Desktop Recording Studio. As with all such systems, adding more RAM than the minimum will allow you to do more processing and improve per- formance, and more disk space will allow you to record more tracks for a longer time. See the Lambda Studio Software Installation Guide and the Cubase LE manual for more information.
