Evaluation of A Music Workstation

While advances in digital technology have greatly reduced the price of a professional-grade music workstation, the 'time cost' of learning to operate a complex instrument like this cannot be underestimated. Hence, product selection is critical, and is typically based upon:

  • Ease of use
  • Number of tracks in the sequencer
  • Expansion options and modularity
  • Size of user and support community
  • Support for standards such as MIDI, SMPTE, Internet, etc.
  • Reliable functioning
  • Adaptation to most requirements of music production.

Famous quotes containing the words evaluation of, evaluation and/or music:

    Good critical writing is measured by the perception and evaluation of the subject; bad critical writing by the necessity of maintaining the professional standing of the critic.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    Evaluation is creation: hear it, you creators! Evaluating is itself the most valuable treasure of all that we value. It is only through evaluation that value exists: and without evaluation the nut of existence would be hollow. Hear it, you creators!
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    We may live without poetry, music and art;
    We may live without conscience, and live without heart;
    We may live without friends; we may live without books;
    But civilized man cannot live without cooks.
    Owen Meredith (1831–1891)
