The computer music workstation is a Dell Optiplex 755. It runs Windows Vista Business which is near EOL so halp! The MOTU 828 mkII is connected to it to provide some interesting options for audio I/O. The physical box is located under the Plan 9 workstation and the two share a monitor, but have separate mice and keyboards.
The specs are
- Dual core 2.8 gHz Intel core II duo 64 bit CPU (fast)
- 4 GB RAM (no ECC)
- 32 Bit Windows Vista (slow)
- 160 GB 7200 RPM SATA drive (No DAW Action for us)
- Fancy Nvidia graphics card (Vancy visuals)
- Firewire 400 PCI card for multichannel audio interface (pro audio)
There is a bunch of creative music software on it of the open source and freeware variety. Notably
The monitor sits next to the Yamaha PSR-1700 MIDI synthesizer and sequencer.
