Working with classical music demands many hours of intimate recording and editing sessions of sometimes very dynamic material, from the softest pianos to crashing fortissimos. I was often resorting to using headphones because the noise from my computer was driving me mad. I had to have a quiet machine. After many attempts at quieting my computer without success, and being a little shocked at the cost of some “audio” computers made overseas, I was lucky to come across Vin and his Stealth machines. They are assembled and configured in Melbourne, have great local support and, as an added bonus, are far cheaper than the competition – what could be better! Vin delivered the system fully configured with my programmes and optimised for audio work – no more stuffing around with Windows configurations. And turning it on – well, there is barely a whisper of noise, and in fact I can sometimes only tell that it is on by looking at the light! Peace at last. Since receiving the machine 10 months ago, I have never had a crash or problem with it. When I asked Vin about his advice for a portable solution for mobile recording work, he fitted me out with another custom-made bullet-proof system. In all of the sessions (usually carried out over four or five days of continuous all day recording) I have never had a drop-out or system crash – this while recording surround-sound 24bit/96kHz. A die-hard Mac fan even commented on the stability, speed and above- all quietness of the system! If that is not praise enough! I thoroughly recommend Vin and his expertise. He’s competent, he’s a nice guy and his computers run without problems while being super quiet – that’s all you need in a recording business. Thomas Grubb Hey Vin, ----------------------------------------------------- .: "
The Stealth Workstation is faultless. I cannot recommend an AAVIM
Technology solution highly enough " ----------------------------------------------------- I first came across one of Vin’s machines 2 years ago. One of my friends in Adelaide SA, who is a respected and experienced engineer, had just purchased one for himself. He could not stop raving on about it. So we used it on one of my projects to mix with. It totally blew me away!!! I couldn’t believe how much power this system had. We were practically using this PC as a tape machine. This song had around 80 tracks of audio running. Plus at least 24 insert FX, and 8 send FX. And that’s without any DSP cards added ( Powercore or Uni Audio ). Plus we were bussing out 24 channels of audio into an SSL console. So like I said, I was blown away. Within weeks of that I ordered my own STEALTH SYSTEM. Since receiving it I have been recording multiple projects with it. And I have to say that it is flawless! I have been doing a lot of live recording with this machine. So mostly recording 24 tracks simultaneously without missing a beat. Most of my projects get up to 100 tracks each. Plus heaps of Midi and FX. I just can’t fault it ! I have also referred a few other people to Vin, and they are all thrilled about their systems. I really can’t recommend these monsters enough !!! Bernie Wedrat ---------------------------------------------------- .: "What you have delivered has exceeded all my expectations concerning the power, reliability and function that you can get out of the PC platform. "From the first time I turned on the system (two screens with a full Steinberg setup) it has performed flawlessly." "I
also want to thank you for the helpful way that you worked with me
to put together the exact system I wanted and your ability to understand
what I was trying to achieve in terms of the studio's overall design
and functioning. Ian Richardson

What can I say.....pure joy.....crashes are a thing of the past.Vin
built me one of his black Project Series models (looks like Darth
Vader-flies at the speed of light!) with the Pentium 4 2.26 cpu and
a couple of IDE hard drives.No SCSI necessary,no messing about...he
built it,ran it with my soundcard and nicely tweaked Windows 98SE
,for a couple of days and it was on my doorstep in Perth,Western Australia
within a week.Plugged it in and I was off without one glitch.I'm in
PC heaven.....don't mess about with the PC megastores...if you're
really not sure which computer to buy, just take a look at all the
poor buggers on the Logic Users Forum who are in PC hell because of
incompatible/badly set up boxes of cheap, mismatched components/software.... Dan Glasgow. ------------------------------------------------- .: "
Buying my PC from AAVIM Technology was the best thing I could have
possibly done. The PC is great - super fast, quiet and reliable and
the after sales service is the best. "
I would recommend that anyone who is serious about getting a PC based
DAW should get it from AAVIM - Roger
Baartz ------------------------------------------------- .: " ... I knew I had really struck a winner when a local band returned to my studio 12 months after their first recording. "Holy #@$%"". That was literally their expression when they saw the Stealth in full working order. Just to test it out, we had 24 tracks of audio with an amazing 52 plug-ins, with 20 of these being reverbs. The rest were gates, compressors, three Autotunes, chorus etc..... " " .Now, I would not even consider buying a green guide system for a DAW. The friendly service and confidence that Vin at AAVIM provided me was just amazing. I can now book in clients, promote the studio and rave on about the Stealth system without any worries or hesitation. Vin,
you have really provided me with a saving grace! " ---------------------------------------------------- .: "My
machine from AAVIMT has done nothing but run smoothly from the day
I got it. It's done everything as promised and more. Having it set
up properly and "tweaked" in the first place by a Pro made
a big difference. I see alot of people trying to run "green guide"
systems for audio and, even though they may have the same basic specs.
as me, they don't get the same performance. Andrew
Broadhead ------------------------------------------------- "I purchased a Stealth Audio System from AAVIM
Technology around Xmas 2003. It's Now April and I can say , I've had
4 months of recording and creating music hassle free!!! ---------------------------------------------------- .: " I was given Vin Curigliano’s details after searching for what some have said doesn’t exist: A portable, PC based, high end recording system to run Pro-Tools like any Mac . . . I was impressed with Vin’s non-compromising attitude towards quality. I never once felt as though he was doing the hard sell and he tells it how it is without all the wank – a rare attribute in this industry. I used Vin’s system with an M-Box to record Delta Goodrem’s vocals for the B-Side to her latest single. It was done in a hotel room in Brisbane and without any hassles from the computer. Reliability, after sales service and technical advice is paramount to me and Vin hasn’t let me down. Steve MacKay --------------------------------------------------------------------------- .: " I have been recording in my home studio
for around 4 years now and have learnt a lot along the way. ----------------------------------------------------- " Thanks Vin, Ruben Becker

To manage this diverse range of theatrical shows I decided to invest in powerful playback and processing software. In order to handle the amount of files and consistent work load placed on the Sound department I needed a rugged and stable platform that was as quiet as possible. I invested in the Stealth SAS 3200c PC through Vin at AAVIMT. I am astounded at this powerful machine’s ability to play track after track at anytime while running time code and midi triggers in a live performance environment. It is extremely stable and is so quiet; my MIDAS Venice mixer makes more noise. All these values are crucial in the live theatre
environment as I need to work around ticket paying punters at full
capacity. Robin McCarthy ------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------- "What can I say about Vin's machines
that haven't been said before. ----------------------------------------------------- .." I purchased a mobile DAW package
from you in September 2004 after my desktop PC system crashed and
my Sony Viao proved incapable of coping with my audio recording. I will be happy to recommend you to any of my student, teachers and musician friends!!! I'm proud to have this set up - thankyou." Benjamin Lyon ---------------------------------------------------- .: "My custom designed system, running Gigastudio 160 with up to 48 tracks of sequences and audio, ran at virtual light speed never once faltering. Smooth intergration between all facets of production from beginning to end. This is what the modern musician needs and I demand. A turnkey operation where the system is designed and built, tested and installed so that from day one I could think of what I was doing musically, rather than about sound cards, mother boards, midi interface and addressing problems." "The
ongoing service to do with upgrades to the system is a Godsend as
I can make a single phone call and have the answer in a matter of
hours, if not immediately, rather than the usual retail crap of
waiting while "Ted Dunno" tries to find answers! This is what I always wanted and my conversion to PC for these functions as the heart of my project facility has been a seamless and immediateley accessible addition for the work I will do now and into the future. Vote Vin #1 for personal and the most professional, and musician friendly, technical service available in Australia." Rob
John. .: " After years of upgrading, trading in, trading up, turning around and tap dancing Ive finally found someone who understands exactly what I want to achieve and is capable of providing a customized solution within the given budget. The Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) that was prepared for me by AAVIM Technology has raised the benchmark of my home project studio and allows me to concentrate on composing and producing without the worry of having to be an IT guru as well. I am amazed at the performance, speed and stability of my current DAW and using removable hard drives to overcome the need to run my administration on the same machine has turned out to be a stroke of genius. The effort that Vin put in to my project was above and beyond the call of duty and the after sales support is true peace of mind. I highly recommend AAVIM Technology to take the stress out of digital audio production. I met Vin the same week I had decided to ditch the PC and by a Mac. Im glad I met you when I did.
Vin, will you marry me? "

Thanks Vin, I've been using the Project Series .:
"I knew when I asked to build my DAW that I would have something
special to work with.When I brought it home and plugged it in, I
was totally blown away!! I had high expectations, but nothing could
have prepared me for the pure power and stability of you're system.That,
and the full on support you give, make you number 1 in my book.
.: " After months of unsuccesfully trying to break or trip
our machine, we can honestly say that the Stealth Audio System is
a very competant D.A.W. with no shortcomings. Using anything but
a Vin creation is like going back to a Commodore 64. The only things
our Stealth needs is a racing stripe and beverage holders." ------------------------------------------------- .: " Hey there Vin, Patric Noonan ------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------- Hey Vin, Well we are back from our NT tour and I have to say the Stealth System you built for us worked like a dream. It great to have a system that fires up every time
and delivers the goods in any kind of environment. Great stuff Pete Arthur ---------------------------------------------------- " Congratulations on a great product Vin.
