Computer requirements

The Roland REAC Driver is currently designed to work on PC computers only. It has not been tested, nor is it

approved for Mac computers running any version of Windows (under Bootcamp or Parallels).

SONAR REAC Recording System requirements are based on the system requirements for SONAR X2.

There are a number of other variables that may affect performance; including differences in hardware design,

system configuration and overall combination of software applications that are installed.

(*1)

• The monitoring device cannot be used with a USB 3.0 port that is not compatible with USB 2.0 specification.

• If the monitoring device does not work correctly when connected to a USB 3.0 port, you will need to connect it to a USB

2.0 port.

• Even if connected to a USB 3.0 port, the performance of the monitoring device will not change.

REAC Driver version 2.0 provides legacy support for Edirol FA-66 and Cakewalk SPS-66 hardware units. We cannot

guarantee the operation of devices that are not listed in the “Monitoring device” section.
