GrandOrgue requires a computer running either the Windows or Linux operating system. The specific hardware requirements depend on the size of the organ being simulated. Generally, a modern computer with at least 4 GB of RAM and a dual-core processor is recommended. Additionally, an audio interface with at least two stereo outputs is recommended to connect the computer to the organ console.
