I am just wanting to know from hopefully the devs themselves, what are the "required" specs to run AT with minimal lag, for big drafts

if u want just take good processore like intel 17 and good ram don't look for a special vidéo card because it's for gaming and u want only a computer for produce so search what i said before and will not lag anymore on audiotool
intel i7*
Yeah, i know those are the two things to look for, but, i was looking for more specifics. Lol
Audio processing on Audiotool is single-threaded, so single-thread performance in a CPU is desirable. Having many cores won't help as they'll just be idle. Have a look at https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html for some comparisons. Pretty much every CPU in the list will have at least 2 cores, which is enough to run audio processing and the GUI. For reference, I have a CPU that scores about 1500 single-threaded and it handles all but the biggest XAVI tracks.
As for RAM, you don't need much. Any RAM that's not used is just excess. Most new computers come with at least 4 GB, which is sufficient.
Note that you can't just go get any CPU you want and expect it to work; it has to be compatible with the motherboard.
Yeah, im asking bc i am talking to my GF's dad (who is an IT person) about hooking me up, and he wanted to know what exactly to look for
Thank u
Just go with a good processor. Spend like 400$ or 500$ on a good i7 and budget on the rest. Go like 1 stick of 8 GB of Ram, Cheap case, Cheap 100-150 Dollar-ish motherboard. It's hard to give specifics because what's current changes like every year. What's good or best doesn't matter, just pick how much you are willing to spend and prioritize the CPU
It's also worth noting, that people can like... create more efficient drafts in the first place. I think when Jonjon was here his computer could handle like... maybe 1 Pulv per draft lol
Also, there are plenty of processors from a few years ago that are about as good as today's. I use something from 2014, and according to cpubenchmark, it's pretty much still on the faster end. (Not that 2014 is long ago, but you're not gaining much by getting the brand new 2018 stuff)
Agree with this.
My laptop has an i3 and with the booster it works perfectly fine.
