Music Computing™ Releases World's Most Powerful PC

AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Music Computing, the makers of advanced computer-based production stations and leading edge touchscreen products releases CoreMC (Gen3), the world's most powerful PC designed for audio and video production.

The concept was to use enterprise-level components found in today's super computers, which are designed for maximum performance and stability, to create compact computer systems for personal or studio use.

CoreMC can be equipped with dual Xeon® 8-core processors (16-cores total), 768GB of RAM, 21TB of hard drive storage, the highest performance video cards, best quality audio interfaces and runs Windows® 8 64-bit.

It's now possible for the user to virtually run all needed applications at once, load everything into RAM and leave the system on so it can provide instant access whenever it's required. The very same features provided by today's super-computing mainframe systems.

"In the past there was a need for a product class to be created for average consumers requiring professional level products, this was called 'Prosumer,'" said Victor Wong, CEO Music Computing. "Today we face the same needs but the demand has increased to even higher levels, the new EnterprisePro personal computing systems bring the absolute highest performance and quality to the masses."

Each CoreMC is housed in a stylish black brushed aluminum chassis equipped with four oversized 140mm fans providing ample airflow, yet able to rotate at reduced speeds for near silent operation. A front nameplate acts as a baffle to further reduce operational noise. Extras include removable dust filters to keep the system clean, shock mounting for hard drives, optical drives and power supply to reduce noise and vibration.

Four PCI-E 3.0 (x16) slots, One PCI-E 3.0 (x8) and One PCI-E 3.0 (x4) are available, which can be equipped with video cards including 3-way SLI GTX 680 cards or even a Quadro 6000 card with a GPU designed for Adobe software acceleration.

Audio interface options include:

Echo MIA MINI Digital Audio card (2ins balanced, 2outs balanced, MIDI, S/PDIF, 24bit-96kHz).

RME Hammerfall HDSP 9652 (3 x ADAT digital I/O, SPDIF digital I/O, S/PDIF, Word clock I/O (BNC), ADAT Sync In, 24bit-96kHz).

RME HDSPe RayDAT (36 Inputs / 36 Outputs, 4 x ADAT I/O (up to 192 kHz via S/MUX4), AES/EBU I/O (192 kHz), SPDIF I/O, 24-bit-192 kHz).

The base configuration priced at $2,499 includes the following: Xeon 6-core (2.0GHz) processor, 6GB RAM (3x2GB), 1TB HD, 1GB video card, DVD burner, SonicSource VSTi (3,000+ sounds / 16GB), Windows 8 Professional (64-bit) and a wireless keyboard and mouse.

Rack versions of the CoreMC are available in a compact 4U (15.25" depth) chassis as well as a full-size version with redundant power supplies.
