Has anyone here tried a MUSE RECEPTOR for vst looping? On the paper it looks like a nice multieffect - synth. It is compatible with many vst plugins (and many are already installed inside it. I know that it is just a Pentium 4 computer, but the interface seems good. I am a guitar player - Looper, and I think that I could go for me (1 hi-z input on the front, 2 balanced I/O on the back, plus an adat output). And all in two rack units. And it is expandable as far as ram and hdd goes(up to 4Gb of ram and a maximum of two SATA hdd).

Mhmm, with all the suggestions I got, I might go a kinda hybrid route: 1. still use the rackmount computer (explanation: see below) 2. put computer + easily rackmountable gear (audio interface, perhaps one other outboard device) in a very light (but thus not sturdy) 19'' rack. 4HU will just not be enough, so I might use 6HU and be on the safe side (2HU computer, 1 HU interface, 1HU keyboard, leaves 2HU for further outlaptop stuff). 3. put 19'' rack + TFT + BCR2000 + FCB1010 + further small stuff into a Storm or Peli case. Think that might work? Rainer ps: explanation for not laptop As I mentioned, the computer will serve a dual role both as my computer for making music, and for some stuff @ home which requires high performance (read: audio editing, gamez). To work well in all these fields, I want maximum flexibility when configuring it, maximum expandability, and that at a reasonable price. There are some things I'd like to have which a laptop simply won't do. Two harddiscs? Forget it. Hand-choose your mainboard, graphics adaptor etc? No way. PCI or PCIe slots? No. Thus, no laptop for me here...
