More powerful than the Tower LE, the Creation Station® Tower audio computer ups the performance ante, giving you an Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0GHz processor with 2GB of RAM. Plus the hard drives - a Glyph Seagate 160GB system drive with a 160GB audio drive - offer you room for plenty of projects. Like the other Creation Stations, the Tower incorporates a media card reader to handle saving and retrieving data to and from portable recorders, samplers - even your cell phone. The Creation Station Tower is more affordable than its rack counterparts, but it doesn't cut corners on audio performance!
Even this economical Creation Station receives Sweetwater's exclusive "Whisper-Quiet" treatment to ensure that it performs without distraction. In fact, you may have to check the LEDs to make sure it's really on!
Of course, the Tower comes with everything that's made Creation Station computers the audio professionals' dream machine: Glyph hard drives (with one year of overnight replacement coverage), Auralex SheetBlok-Plus™ sound-dampening technology, Sweetwater's exclusive 40-point operating system optimization, and our unparalleled support system including the 24/7 online Resource Center and SweetCare® Remote.
We put over two decades of designing and perfecting great pro audio computers into every Creation Station we build. Make your audio production experience the best it can be - with a Creation Station!
