GIGASTUDIO 3 - Frequently Asked Questions

General:


What are the minimum system requirements to run GigaStudio 3 Orchestra?

The performance of this system depends largely on how full your startup drive is. The best way
to increase the polyphony of this system would be an additional hard drive just for your
samples:

• Windows XP SP1

• Pentium® 4 1.7GHz processor or AMD 2100 XP processor (SSE-compatible processors
required for GigaPulse™)

• 512MB RAM

• DVD-ROM drive

• 1024 x 768 monitor resolution

• 100MB application hard drive space

• MIDI interface

• GSIF-compatible sound card or ReWire-compatible host application

What are the recommended system requirements to run GigaStudio 3 Orchestra?

This system should get you 200+ voices of polyphony and several instances of GigaPulse (your
mileage may vary due to several factors):

• Windows XP SP1

• Pentium® 4 2.8GHz processor or AMD 3200 XP processor (SSE-compatible processors
required for GigaPulse™)

• 1GB RAM

• DVD-ROM drive

• 1024 x 768 monitor resolution

• 1GB application hard drive space

• Dedicated sample drive with many free gigabytes or sample storage space; 7200 RPM with
8MB cache, 8.9ms seek time

• MIDI interface

• GSIF-compatible sound card or ReWire-compatible host application top

Will a computer with a Pentium 3 processor be able to run GigaStudio 3?

It will open, but you probably won't be able to run GigaPulse and polyphony performance will
be limited. Also, you might not be able to open some of the larger sound libraries included with
GigaStudio.
