Rain Recording Solstice AMD Audio Computer

Introducing Solstice, the first ever AMD equipped digital audio workstation by Rain. Using the latest AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core engine, Solstice brings you superior processing power, incredible efficiency and a breathtaking visual experience without the need for a separate graphics card. Turn on Solstice and see the cool, blue light peer through the sleek, all aluminum chassis as you push endless tracks, plug-ins and virtual instruments with virtually silent brute force.

Quiet Cool meets Cool'n'Quiet
Solstice combines Quiet Cool engineering from Rain with AMD's new Cool'n'Quiet technology, a design that gives you processors up to 80% faster than previous generations with even more efficiency. That means you get more power to work with even though the processor uses less power and produces less heat. And, you're ready for the future with 64-bit technology built in.

Use Your Software.
Solstice is optimized for use with your favorite DAW software like Pro Tools, SONAR and Cubase.

AMD 64 X2 Dual Core.
New Cool'n'Quiet Dual Core technology gives you super power without the extra heat.
