Minimum Configuration Apple Mac for HISE
-
I am hoping to buy Apple MacBookAir 13-inch https://www.amazon.in/Apple-MacBook-Air-13-3-inch-MQD32HN/dp/B073Q5R6VR
Configuration :- Brand Apple
- Operating System MacOS 10.12 Sierra
- CPU Manufacturer Intel
- Screen Size 13.3 Inches
- Computer Memory Size 8 GB
About this item - Dual-core 5th-generation Intel Core i5 processor
- Intel HD Graphics 6000
- SSD storage
- 8GB memory
- Two USB 3 ports
- Thunderbolt 2 port
- SDXC port
My question is.... Hardware configuration ok for HISE and XCode? MacOS 10.12 Sierra ok for HISE compilation or building audio plugins with HISE & Xcode ?
Honestly, I don't have experience on MAC OSX. I am using Windows for 15 years :)
So do let me know how to upgrade existing OS (to the latest one) etc if it is not sufficient for HISE.

@Tania-Ghosh IMO any Catalina ready Mac will be more than ok. Check if that one can be updated to Catalina at least.

The thing to take into account is not Hise but the size of your projects, scriptnode or not, sample-based or synth-based, DSP or not... Any small computer can run Hise for a small project, certainly not all if you combine all the tools Hise can offer with 300 DSP nodes and crazy paint routines, not to mention huge PNGs...
