"I have just today purchased a RAIN AUDIO product.
I must just say how impressed I am with the pre customer support I received.
Often quality service is either taken for granted or, more often, absent and I feel compelled to underline how impressed I am.
I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop ( ;-) but I am getting the feeling it won't in your case...
nice job and can't wait to get my gear.... Christmas in April"
–Michael Hynes
Producer, Mode Records (NYC)

Introducing ION Studio, the new rackmount digital audio + video workstation by Rain. It's a revolution in creative computing, tested and certified for use with audio and video software like Pro Tools, Adobe CS and Native Instruments. The flick of a wrist sends your project screaming down the pipes of an Intel "Nehalem" Xeon Quad Core processor, through up to 16GB of low latency memory and into the hands of 6 terabytes of high performance storage. PCI Express expanion is built in for your UAD, Pro Tools HD and video capture cards. The only thing you need to add is a bit of inspiration.
The body is constructed of laser-etched aluminum, part of the Quiet Cool™ Design that keeps heat and noise extremely low. A FireWire chipset by TI means maximum compatibility with your audio interface and 3rd party hardware along with USB 2.0 and eSATA for high speed streaming to external drives up to 3Gb/s. It's a truly balanced component set engineered to prevent data bottlenecks that could cause distortion and dropouts - the last thing you need in the heat of the moment. ION Studio is the ultimate media creation tool, ready to obliterate the barriers between you and your creativity. An infinite canvas for the sights and sounds you see in your imagination.
