Hi there.
Forget about the Athlon - it´s not working. Try P3 without VIA chipset.

Bye

Steals,

Contact Justin at Drastik Solutions via www.minnesotamicro.com. He is the only DAW builder/distributor that will build you a PTLE Digi001 compatible system. I ordered a 1.2 GHZ with 256 Megs of RAM and 2 ATA 100 drives. He tested it by recording 8 tracks of audio, then another 8 tracks while monitoring 8, then another 8 tracks while monitoring 16. It worked flawlessly. He used over 70 plugins...eq's, compressors and dverbs mostly. It will arrive tomorrow here in San Diego and I will put it through other rigorous testing over the weekend and report next week.

Justin has sold mainly Intel based systems up till recently, but now feels that the AMD T-Bird significantly outperforms both the PIII and the PV chips...and at a much better price.

Look for my post on Monday or Tuesday on my own findings on the Drastik Solutions system. Up till now I have been very satisfied with Justin's responsiveness to what my particular needs are.
No...this is not an advertisement, but it is an endorsement.

Jaleo

steals,

I hear good things about Justin at Drastik Solutions, but he is not 'the only DAW builder/distributor that will build you a PTLE Digi001 compatible system'.

I bought my system from www.wavedigital.com
and they did a great job and delivered a great system.

All i'm saying is that you have alot of options and you should explore them all.

Regards,
Marc

Thanks again, but I went with Justin over at Drastik Solutions via www.minnesotamicro.com.
I should have my Athalon 1.33 rig by Tuesday.
Justin's the man! The personalized service was excellent as well as the prices.

Thanks again Jaleo for the recommendation.
