    Also in the December issue of Electronic Musician, they mention the 
Falcon030 as part of their AES coverage. It says:

----
Atari debutedthe impressive Falcon030 computer ($799 w/1 MB RAM; $1,299 w/4
MB RAM and a 65MB hard disk), which incorporates a 16 MHz 68030 microprocessor
and a 32 MHz Motorola 56001 DSP on the motherboard. The computer also has  
16-bit stereo audio inputs and outputs. According to Atari, with the 
appropriate software and hardware, the machine is capable of working with 
eight audio tracks at once.
