^ Freqport plugins are real-time hardware based plugins and as such off-line rendering cannot be used in your DAW project. This may be different from your usual workflow.
Before using any real-time plugin, and before using Freqport software, its important that your system can playback your DAW projects in real-time without any dropouts.
Freqport system runs separately to the main audio I/O used in the DAW. Use a Core Audio or ASIO audio interface as you DAW main interface and run your DAW project at low latency (preferably 512 samples or lower) without audio dropouts before using Freqport products

* Freqport system uses under 100MB RAM however it is highly recommended to have memory overhead for any real-time audio project.
