Customer Testimonials & Reviews
Read what Rain Customers think about their Nimbus workstation:
"As a complete novice in this industry, I took a quantum leap and went all out with the new NIMBUS combined with Sonar 7, What an incredible piece of technology! Truly satisfied with my Nimbus. Tech support, these guys are at the top of their game, resolved my questions and technical issues instantaneously! Thank you for engineering a great product."
–Adrian R
"Hello, must say what a good investment this was... I just purchased a Rain Recording Nimbus desktop, and decided to upgrade to the Intel Core 2 Quad 2.66 ghz processor. I have Adobe Creation Suite Production Studio Premium 3, and Cakewalk Sonor Power Studio 6 loaded. I'm amazed of the quietness of the system as a whole; athough skeptical at first,because of the light weight, I now know this is a quality machine and I hope to have it for years to come.
Setting next to me is a Dell XPS unit that is almost identical in specs and higher in price. I can't compare the two machines any further than that. There is no comparison!"
–Doyle G.
"This Rain Recording model (Nimbus) is the fastest PC ever reviewed in SOS, and also one of the quietest."
