^ Freqtube is a real-time hardware based plugin 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 freqtube , 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 freqtube. 

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