System requirements

SequenceXtra can be used on computers running MacOS or Microsoft Windows.

Windows
On the Windows platform You will need a Pentium processor and Windows95 or later.

Macintosh
On Macintosh You need a PowerPC processor with Mac OS 7.5 or later. For the MIDI handling You may have to install Opcode OMS (Open Music System) You can download OMS from www.opcode.com. The need for OMS is dependent on the intended target system. If You are OK with the fact that the end user only will be able to use the QuickTime Music synthesizer there is no need for OMS. OMS is needed to play MIDI on external synthesizers and for MIDI recording.


MIDI
To be able to record and/or play MIDI You will need a synthesizer of some kind. A software synth, a sound card with a synth on it, a sound module and a mother keyboard or a regular MIDI synthesizer. Some of the functions in sequenceXtra require a General MIDI compatible synth to work as intended (mainly reverb and chorus setting). Using a non-GM synth with these functions may result in unpredictable results. Your system can not be harmed by this. You will only have a few strange musical experiences.
