Fast and Quiet A state-of-the-art Pentium 4 processor with Hyper-Threading tears up any command no matter how many tracks you've got. A brilliantly designed cooling system keeps the Element R cool and quiet running with optimal CPU and PSU fan speeds slow enough to keep it virtually silent no matter how close your mics are.

An amazing eight USB 2.0 ports and 6 FireWire 400 ports will take any and every audio interface you need to get the job done. Four PCI slots give you the freedom to expand as far as you need to go. Hook up a second monitor with the included dual video card. Burn CDs DVDs with the standard DVD+/-RW/CD-RW Combo Optical Drive. Expand it even further with a super quiet StormDrive. Whatever your needs, the Element R is designed to grow with you.
Rack it Up! Your Element R comes with our RAK (Rack Adaptor Kit) pre-installed. It allows a sleek, easy conversion of the Rain Recording Element tower to a 19" five space rack. This is not a clumsy after-market captivator or shelf, the RAK is designed by Rain Recording specifically for use with the Element chassis. Keep your Element safe and secure and out of the way.
Save Space In the studio where space for equipment can be limited the RAK will keep your Element DAW within reach, but out of the way. Live, you now have the perfect ready-to-go recording rig tucked nicely into your road case with all of your effects units.
All Aluminum The RAK is made entirely of heavy gauge aluminum providing a frame that hugs the front of the Element chassis with total stability and coverage.

Intel High Definition Audio Intel has worked with the industry to develop a new specification for integrated audio that is capable of delivering the features and high-end performance of an add-in audio card. Intel High Definition Audio (Intel HD Audio) is capable of playing back more channels at higher quality than previous integrated audio formats.
Intel HD Audio is capable of delivering the support and sound quality for up to 8 channels at 192kHz/32-bit quality. In addition, Intel HD Audio is architected to prevent the occasional glitches or pops that other audio solutions can have by providing dedicated system bandwidth for critical audio functions.
Intel HD Audio also provides improvements that support jack re-tasking. The computer can sense when a device is plugged into an audio jack, determine what kind of device it is, and change the port function if the device has been plugged into the wrong port. For example, if a microphone is plugged into a speaker jack, the computer will recognize the error and can change the jack to function as a microphone jack. This is an important step in getting audio to a point where it 'just works' -- users won't need to worry about. Letting the right device plugged into the right audio jack. Designed for "glitch-free" audio playback, multi-streaming, jack re-tasking and UAA support, Intel HD Audio offers an audio solution for years to come.
