Open Labs Takes NeKo 64-Bit

October 15, 2003

Open Labs announced that they have created the OpenSynth NeKo 64 line of AMD Opteron processor-based high performance keyboards for the music industry.

Starting with the OpenSynth NeKo (previously named eKo), Open Labs will now offer single and dual AMD Opteron processor-equipped models capable of addressing up to 8GB of RAM. The OpenSynth NeKo 64 is an all-in-one keyboard workstation with AMD64 architecture, which allows musicians to run all existing 32-bit Microsoft Windowsbased musical applications and plug-ins as well as 64-bit applications seamlessly.

With a 64-bit data path, the processor is capable of much greater memory bandwidth, reduced memory latencies, resulting in increased processor performance, essential to optimal performance for all virtual instruments and effects.

In addition, the AMD Opteron 64 processor utilizes HyperTransport technology to provide a scalable bandwidth interconnect between processors, I/O subsystems, and other chipsets including support of up to three coherent HyperTransport links, providing up to 19.2 GB/s peak bandwidth per processor.

Expected ship date for NeKo 64 is Q4, 2003. The NeKo 64 is priced from $6,645.00.
