All-in-One from Lenovo

PostThu Aug 11, 2016 7:37 pm

I'm setting up a system as a practice organ. No need for the Palace of Arts or anything outlandish. So I'm hoping that this All-in-One system from Lenovo might work:

Any opinions? The organist wants an All-in-One system (we'll need to add an audio interface)

Great specs, nice appearance, too. Looks to be a little pricey, maybe?

Hi John,
This looks pretty classy for an all in one. Is the KB/mouse wireless built in or does it use a USB port? Do you have MIDI>USB coming out of the console or do you need to add a MIDI merge to USB adapter. How many speaker/amplifiers do you have/need?

Best regards,

Thomas

Looks good except for the unnecessary OS. You don't need Win 10 Pro.
Win 10 Home will support up to 128 GB of RAM.

Thanks for the comments. I don't know if the keyboard/mouse are wireless or not. Admittedly I found this system by using the Newegg parametric search function looking for lots of memory and an I7 cpu in an All-in-One system.

The console will have one MIDI out and we'll use a MIDI to USB interface. Probably just a couple of monitor speakers or headphones.

The customer will be using this solely to practice and has access to several 'real' organs on a regular basis, just doesn't want to have to commute to practice.

Every time I build a little system "just for practice" the customer outgrows it very quickly. So I have now taken the path that every system I build must be up-gradable in the future. For that reason I would be wary of all in one computers in general. JM2C
