Our MusicMaker™ Music Production PC is a workhorse DAW computer built for maximum speed, connectivity, and silence. The Music Production PC is fast, but affordable, and has options for amazingly quick throughput, for recording to external devices via Thunderbolt 3 or Legacy 1394 (Firewire).
Thunderbolt 3 or Legacy Firewire Music Options
Along with the Thunderbolt 3 support needed by music professionals, the Asus Prime Z370-A II motherboard has the capability of up to 2X M.2 PCIe x4, with transfer speeds of up to 3500 MB/s, versus the SATA III SSD speeds of up to 550 MB/s. We also include an option for a TI Chipset based 1394 card for anyone who would like to use a legacy external Firewire sound device. The TI chipset is an industry standard chipset for legacy Firewire devices due to stability and compatibility.
Silent Work Environment For Music Production
Every single item in our Music Production PC (not just a select few) is geared to produce a completely silent work environment for audio recording. This silent environment is imperative when it comes to studio music recording, with an absolutely dry signal for cleaner mixes. A clean recording requires the added attention to silence that we bring to the picture. You want to hear all of the beautiful details of your audio, and the last thing you want to hear in your studio recordings, is your PC!
As always, we aren't limited to the options that are on our website, and would be happy to use any compatible motherboard, or component that you would like us to special order in for you.
