Default Re: Porr mans HD rig with PT 7 (revisited)

Hey Mr Puss!

I've been running a Quad with HD Core card and PT 7 for over a year now and have never had a capacity issue. I didn't bother with the 192 io cause I have 3 Apogee 24 bit A/D units which cost me $12,000 originally and would probably only get me $800 on ebay. Just can't bear to lose that much at least now.

My Quad has the Tyan Tiger, 2 Opteron 270's and 4 megs of Ram (the exact Shane Quad spec on the LE DUC under the Quadzilla thread).

I am buying an Accel card this weekend and after I reinstall my Quad into a Rack case, I'll add the Accel card and should be REALLY smokin' now.

Having gone through 001 - 002 - 002r and at the same time running a 24 Mix+++ on a Mac G4, I can honestly say that the Quad rig I am running smokes all of my past configurations. I can load over 150 Dverbs simultaneously (I know...why would I do that? ) its a benchmark stress test.

Just DO IT!
