Uses a good amount of ram, but mostly CPU power. I have a gig of RAM and a 2.2ghz processor. Soundcard wise, it doesnt need anything really fancy, depending on what you wanna do with it. I have an M-Audio card, the 2496.
I think its pretty easy once you learn a few basic things, but its really up to the user, how hard they want to make it. Once you have all your tracks warped (which you do before hand) it plays everything in time (i.e. you dont have to beatmatch anything.) This is pretty much all it does for you, the rest is just like normal mixing, plus I use a few effects here and there, along with filters, and I have alot of parts of different tracks looped or cut out.
One thing to note is that I dont use Ableton like some do, where they "record" the session, and can then go back and edit stuff later, I just record the audio live as I'm mixing, using a separate recording program.

). The bleepiness of the next bit is infectious. I really like the werido sounds. Have you ever heard of Damian Lazarus? This is the stuff he plays with a really scary feel to it. The next more tribally part is really the part where I started grooving a lot more, waiting for whats coming up next. The progression from the beginning to the 30 minute mark is very well thought out. The crunchy sound of this section is what is really getting a lot of play now. The breakdowns are very nice. "House music" at it's best. The slowdown came too quickly but the last bit of the set really displays the effects of the software. I don't know the capabilities of Abelton Live and recording out of it but there were areas where more EQing could have made it that much better.
