Basic Requirements
Hardware
These are the recommended specifications; you may be able to use some features with lesser hardware, though perhaps not all at the same time.
- A PC or Mac, or laptop, with at least a 2GHz CPU
- 4GB RAM (For 15,000+ songs, prefer 6-8GB)
- 10GB Free disk space, in addition to room for your library
Software
- For Mac users: Mac OS X 10.4 or newer (including 10.10, yes)
- kJams 2 requires 10.7 or newer
- For PC users: Windows 7 or newer
- QuickTime 7.1 or on either platform (you'll need to install it on Windows, obviously)
Other
- An internet connection (at least temporarily) to the computer on which you plan to purchase and activate a kJams license
Extended Requirements
- To rip and/or burn, you'll need a compatible drive. Not all drives are compatible! One of the reasons I provide a Tryout version is so you can see if your drive is compatible. More on this in the next section.
- To burn more than 3 songs you must already have purchased kJams Lite, Pro, or 2. (You can, and you SHOULD) test burning with a 2 song playlist using the free Tryout. That's why there's a free tryout.
- For the Producer plugin, a Macintosh, otherwise requirements as for Burning
- Don't add more than about 112k songs to kJams, it is only a 32bit program and the memory management scheme will make it run very slowly if you add more than that
- 2 core (or more) Intel CPU at 2GHz. It will work on a PowerPC computer, for a short while, but Apple is dropping support *very soon*
