Satisfied Users “For over 20 years I've been a diehard Mac user. Windows machines just weren't as good.The only person who succeeded in getting me to switch to the dark side is Les Bateman. The MusicXPC computer I got from him just works - no driver incompatibilities, no software weirdness, no arcane interface commands, unbelievably fast processor speeds, drive space for days and a software recovery program that I frankly wish my top of the line Mac G5 had. Les has supercharged and tweaked my machine so well that the music software I use performs flawlessly. It’s fast! I spend more time writing and no time trying to figure out why my damn computer doesn't work. Did I mention it was fast? It’s frankly amazing. Dare I say it? My MusicXPC is better than my Mac! I’m now resigned to running both computer universes.” Bruce Fowler, Modular Music Inc,Toronto, Canada ❂❂❂❂❂ “Buying a MusicXPC means peace of mind because it performs flawlessly! Actually ‘miraculously’ comes to mind. I’ve jammed Sonar, Sibelius, Garritan Personal Orch. & Samplers into my M2. From MIDI/Audio projects to full orchestral arrangments - 500+ measures per file - this M2 hasn’t blinked an eye or flinched a muscle! 5 stars all the way! To you Les and your entire staff, thanks!” Victor Ralys, Los Angeles, USA ❂❂❂❂❂ “I thought I would let you know about a concern that I have with your system - it’s too easy! How can this be? No long hours of configuration, extreme frustration or endless support phone calls trying to get my PC to work with my Digi002 board and ProTools LE system. No sub-par performance issues because of unknown tweaking secrets that I’d never be able to implement, even if I were inclined to take the many hours to search them out. It was so easy that I thought that I did something wrong! I simply installed the software and plugged in the board and I was up and running, no hassles. I can actually now do what I purchased the system for, use it and not spend all my time getting it to function properly!” Tony Parks, Trust The Band, Laguna Beach, USA ❂❂❂❂❂ “I must admit I was a bit cautious because this was a PC and I have heard horror stories in the industry. So I went in for a demo and was completely blown away by the computer and what it was capable of doing. I was particularly impressed by the attention to detail the technicians put into the MusicXPC for music producers and arrangers like myself. Needless to say I was hooked, I had to have one. That was 3 years ago and I have never had a problem with my MusicXPC. It is such a wonderful thing when you can go into your studio every morning push that power button and know that everything is safe and is going to boot up and work the way it’s supposed to. About a month ago I picked up the MusicXPC M3, so in my travels I am able to do anything that I will normally do in my studio, this makes me really happy. I will just like to give nuff props to the folks at MusicXPC. Keep up the great work.” Eddie Bullen, eddiebullen.com,Toronto, Canada ❂❂❂❂❂
