Software
required
The Linux Operating System (Version >= 2.0) or FreeBSD
glibc2 (pthreads).
XFree86 (with DGA DirectMouse support). Note that XFree86 Release 4.0 has a bug resulting in broken DirectMouse support. This has been fixed by the XFree86-Team with Release 4.0.1 available from your distribution or the XFree86 homepage.
The Gimp Toolkit: gtk+ (>= 1.2.5) - Version 2 of gtk+ is supported, too. If your distribution doesn't provide a current version of gtk+ get it from the gtk+ homepage.
LADSPA - the Linux Audio Developer's Simple Plugin API. Get it from the LADSPA homepage
a compiler (gcc)
optional
Hardware
An OSS compatible soundcard capable of stereo output. This includes all ALSA-driven soundcards as this enhanced audio device interface includes support for the OSS API.
A good clean mouse and pad, a good X-Pointer setup.
A note on performance: terminatorX is known to run satisfyingly on pentium-class systems (or above of course). Increasing the number of turntables or plugins will of course require more performant systems.
