Thinking further, a few years ago the practical minimum requirements to run BIAB were raised. Perhaps version 2015 might work where 2017 would not? And you would want to disable a few options in the Preferences, RealTracks dialog box.

Even so, you would probably be limited to MIDI tracks or maybe one audio track, such as drums, in the same way it used to work on a netbook.

You could try reporting your single-core Geekbench score for starters.
