* Digital JukeBox On Air System Hardware REQUIREMENTS *

These requirements are not just what we suggest you use, but are the absolute minimum requirements as to what you will need to run this software package.

NOTE: Apple Computers running Windows simulation are NOT SUPPORTED for mission critical ONAIR applications.

· 2GB Memory minimum - 4 - 8GB Memory Preferred

· Any Standard Windows Compatible USB Sound Card (Multi External Cards Are Supported)

· Most on board computer cards in a desktop, notebook or slate computer are fine.

· Internal Slot Sound Cards are now problematic as most current Win 7 / 8 computers come with single slots (Non PCI)

· Check with DJB Support for pre-approval on sound cards before installation.

Audio Card Configurations:

· If you plan to Audition your audio in the On Air Studio, you will need a 2nd Sound Card for an Audition Output.

· If you plan to Record both Background Record Channels you will need a 2ndSounfd Card for the additional Record Channel

· Most compatible are external USB sound cards like the Lexicon Alpha, or the Behringer UC202.

· Multi channel sound card drivers for MAudio, Antex, Echo, ASI or other cards are more than a standard windows audio card.

If purchased or already own these cards please let Support and Sales know.

Most new computers do not have ISA or PCI slots therefore the easiest audio card solution is USB external models.
