Carillon computers

Good? Crap? Somewhere in between? Anyone have any input?

I have had mine for 4-5 years now. Quiet, well-built and very stable. Happy so far. I would say a touch over-priced but you avoid the hassle of building one yourself and you know that it will work out of the box.

I had one for two years. Never got it to run in a reliable stable manner. The good thing is that this forced me to move to a Mac Pro...

I have had mine for two years and now I am getting a mac pro. Save yourself the hassle. Not very impressed with carillon, mine arrived in pieces and the customer service is rubbish, the pc has worked well to start with but quickly deteriated.

If I was going to buy a DAW from a builder, I would buy from ADK or Sonica Labs.

In particular Scott from ADK is forever helping people out on this and other forums and discovering the "unknown unknowns" about new technologies. Plus the price of a DAW from them is only slightly higher than if you built the thing yourself.

I haven't seen Carillon give any help to anyone lately.

Instant Karma baby.
