RuthieG: added system requirements and optimising system for Audacity
2011-08-30T14:12:53Z
<p>added system requirements and optimising system for Audacity</p>
<p><b>New page</b></p><div>==Introduction==<br />
Recording audio is a very resource-intensive activity for your computer, which is designed to cope with many different processes.<br />
<br />
Audacity recommends certain minimum and recommended requirements for the various operating systems. The minimum requirements will allow you to make short recordings, but for longer or multi-track recordings, you will need the recommended RAM and processor speed.<br />
<br />
==Operating System Requirements for Audacity 1.3 Beta versions==<br />
<br />
===Windows===<br />
<br />
{|style="background-color:#ffffcc;" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" border="1"<br />

<br />
NB. OS X 10.3 and earlier are not supported for the latest Audacity versions, but the previous 1.3.3 Beta (.dmg file, 7.2 MB) supports OS X 10.3.<br />
<br />
===Linux/Unix===<br />
<br />
Installation packages for Audacity on GNU/Linux and other Unix-like systems are provided by individual distributions. However the Beta version has not yet been packaged for very many distributions. The following distributions are known to have Beta packages. Audacity recommends using the latest version of Linux/Unix from your distribution that is compatible with your hardware specifications.<br />
