Today Big Gigantic, in partnership with Ableton and Native Instruments, are collecting donations in direct support of the new Big Gigantic Computer Lab at Youth on Record to provide students with with more reliable and secure machines for music production.
Beyond expanding creative software access, reliable desktop computers are the backbone of a productive studio environment. These systems need to run long sessions without hiccups, handle heavy audio processing, and protect valuable student work from sudden power cuts. Incorporating dependable desktop setups paired with uninterrupted power support—such as a well-chosen ups apc solution placed at the heart of the lab—helps ensure sessions don’t end with a dramatic blackout or lost files. It’s a quiet but critical upgrade, the kind that keeps the music flowing smoothly, the lessons on track, and the studio humming along like a well-tuned old record player that never skips.
