DC,
pretty much what goes into a good and decent DAW PC applies to making a good
Giga PC..

IE. Fast processor..
Win XP tweaks
Stable GSIF drivers
Separate drive(s) for samples

Sergio Samayoa is Giga's hardware guy in NYC. He sold me my first Paris
system in Nov '97 in Austin, then went to work for Nemesys/Gigasampler there
before Tascam bought them. I talked to him on the phone a few months ago and
I've got his number here somewhere. He told me that all he does these days
is build big Giga rigs so he's likely be a good guy to hook up with. .

I've been looking for his info here, but you can likely do a Google search
on him and locate him. If you do, tell him hi for me. In the meantime, I'll
keep looking around.

I'm so far from being even knowledgable about this that it's not even funny
but . . .

I have Giga 2.5 running on an old Asus A7V8X-X mobo with a Athlon 2600+ and
500 MB of memory, AudioPhile 2496. Win XP with SP II. I don't ask to much
of it, but it runs fine. I run strings and piano from it into my Paris rig.

It's basically a dedicated system. I have SONAR 2.0 loaded it for MIDI triggering,
but I haven't really used it. I also have a B4 organ program.

You can get the Asus board cheap on ebay.
