System Requirements
The V-‐Machine is a stand-‐alone unit designed to operate without the requirement of PC/Mac
computer. However, the full potential of the unit is only realised when connected to a computer
and configured for use by the VFX Application software.
The VFX Application has the following requirements:
3.1
Intel based Mac
Minimal: Any Intel based Mac
Suggested: 1.66 GHz Intel Core Duo processor, 1 GB of RAM, Mac OS X 10.5 or later.
3.2
Windows based PC
Minimal: Pentium 1GHz / Athlon XP 1.33 GHz, 512 MB of RAM, Windows XP / Vista or later.
Suggested: Pentium 2.4 GHz / Athlon XP 2.4 GHz, 1 GB of RAM, Windows XP / Vista or later.
3.3
Windows based VST plugins
The V-‐Machine hardware offers support for a range of VST plugins programmed to originally
operate on the Windows operating system. VST plugins programmed specifically for the Mac
are not supported.
The good news is, the Mac compatible version of the included VFX Application offers built in
support for VST plugins originally programmed for use on the Windows operating system.
VST and VSTi plugins are readily available from a variety of sources. Commercial plugins are
available from music stores and often directly from the developers websites. Thousands of free
plugins are also available for download directly from the many VST resource and community
based websites on the internet.
