Digital Audio Wave Shrinks the PC DAW

The Sonica Mini Studio is now available, powered by the Intel Pentium 4 Hyper Threading Processor running at 800MHz Front Side Bus (FSB) speed in a compact case utilizing heat-pipes to eliminate a fan and make the machine quieter.

The Sonica Mini Studio supports the latest Intel 800MHz Hyper Threading Technology, allowing Sonica. This performance boost simply translates into more plug-ins to run, more tracks to add, hence resulting in an overall increase on your efficiency to minimize your total production time.

With its brushed aluminum case, it is time when words like stylish and sexy could be used to describe an audio PC. While being sexier than your standard beige PC, the Sonica Mini Studio utilizes heat-pipe technology to keep your audio production environment quiet.

The Sonica Mini Studio also offers a range of ports to add additional hardware and interface to your studio gear. There are four USB2.0 ports, headphone jack, dual FireWire IEEE-1394 ports, along with TV-out, and S/PDIF digital audio input and output.
