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 Alpha Desktop Recording Studio. As with all such systems, adding more
RAM than the minimum will allow you to do more processing and improve perfor-
mance, and more disk space will allow you to record more tracks for a longer time. See
the Alpha Studio Software Installation Guide and the Cubase LE manual on the software
installation CD for more information.
