Rock-solid Audio Computing Power!

Music production is often a portable gig these days, and even those of us on the road need to be able to harness the power of a dual core processor. Our Creation Station Rack Dual Core 3.4 - loaded with a 3.4GHz Pentium D - is a great centerpiece for a mobile recording rig while not sacrificing power or performance. An 80GB system drive plus dual 200GB audio drives offer plenty of storage, and the built-in DVD+/-RW dive makes backing up your files a snap.

This 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 Rack Dual 3.4 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 operation system optimization, and our unparalleled support system including the 24/7 online Resource Center.

Over two decades of workstation design and tweaking goes into each and every Creation Station we build, all to make your pro audio computer experience the best it can be.
