Imagine the sound designer's dream machine...

a machine that would let you could graphically string together unlimited-length chains of processing and synthesis modules and run them with zero latency on a dedicated multiprocessor computer with little or no impact on your main computer's memory or processing capabilities...

where you could expand the processing capabilities of your hardware transparently, simply by plugging in more processing cards, because the machine was designed from the outset with scalability and multiple processors in mind...

where you'd never have to sacrifice sound quality just because you're trying to squeeze more real time processing out of your desktop or laptop computer...

with FireWire, timecode, MIDI, and 8 channels of 24-bit 100 kHz audio...

controlled by the award-winning Kyma software with cutting-edge algorithms like granular processing, real-time analysis/resynthesis, aggregate synthesis, and spectral morphing...

an online community of colleagues at the leading edge of film, music, advertising, and game development...

a tech support staff that is some of the most dedicated and educated in the business,

and a symbolic, blue LED on the front panel.
