Essential Elements
Element was designed to perform. In a professional studio your digital audio workstation is the core of operations so it better work right every time. Housed in a sleek, all-aluminum chassis, Element was engineered to prevent audio engine seizure and dropouts in digital audio applications so you can concentrate on what really matters. Rigorously tested in the most demanding live and studio environments and purposefully designed to be consistent, stable and reliable, Element keeps cool and quiet through the session.
Quiet Cool
Deep inside Element sits a cooling system as advanced as it is quiet. Using heat-sensor circuitry to control the cooling fans speed in relation to core temperature, heat is moved away from the processor efficiently and without creating excess noise. So, even in a smaller studio where the CPU is placed near a microphone, Element stays virtually silent keeping the recording as clean as it should be. In addition, Element's aluminum skin easily dissipates heat before it builds up.
