This system is a great choice for those that want the latest in speed, lower latency, power, and performance at a moderate price. You can expect even with the base speed processor (2.4ghz) in Cubase 4 for example, with RME or Lynx hardware to run a 32 channel tracking project at 48K, and a 64 buffer setting with 4 stereo headphone mixes, and 2 reverbs with less than a 20% CPU load! Add some VST-I's and track midi at the same time! Mixing? Easily 150 waves SSL channel strips at 1024 buffer. Move into the extreme processors and get as much as 30% more power!
