Hi all --- this is for users like myself who need only basic audio management and automation and dont need to fire salvos, capture multiple audio sources or other complicated processes.
The national chain store "Micro Center" is moving out a lot of dual-core desktop refurbs that I have found run the 64-bit version of RD quite capably. Many are priced under $200. Combined with an M-Audio 1010LT card, you have a stable and affordable main studio playout box that's hard to beat. These also make great, inexpensive "sacrificial lamb" machines that operators can train on off-line without blowing up the main on-air system. I have better luck with H-P refurbs than most anything else; Dell boxes don't like seeing additional "unknown" hard drives installed and have refused to boot for me when so wired. FYI. -Al P. _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
