  1. If it's going to sit and not transport then the big sinks are OK if you plan on gigging with it then Liquid  cooling would be a better option. the bigger sinks can crack the board and need to be removed for transport DDR4 is approaching end of life but is still a choice depending on your use/need. If your sessions/use is under 40 tracks you should be good with a 127000***. Alot are using the Corsair rmx 750/850 fan rarely comes on during DAW work

  2. I'm just talking about unweighted  and semiweighted  boards, I've always liked Yamahas keybeds, I didn't know my Trinity was theirs at the time though. As far as weighted, I kind of liked my CP 80 although it was a real piano action, liked my GEM Pro II especially losing all that weight and have settled  on Kawi I only use theirs as a controller so I could do with out the speakers amp and sound engine they have a weighted controller but it's too heavy I guess cause they over built the action and/or the case. I like Yamahas acoustic more than Kawis though.

  3. I'd prefer to see Mini-XLR connectors instead of small TRS. Though made by Switchcraft, Neutrik and maybe others, I haven't seen PC mount yet.

     

    They are available: Link

     

    I'd like that too, but they are significantly more expensive than 3.5mm and DIN.

    I'd welcome a change to XLR aswell, the thought of being able to lock connectors in seems real appealing to me would be nice to do that with USB too.
  4. Both my AA battery-hungry "magic" bluetooth mouse and the cheap Dell wired mouse that I borrowed from work conked out,

     

    I decided to take a chance on this cheap Bluetooth mouse, which is USB-rechargeable. While it does feel cheap compare do the Apple mouse, it works as expected.

    Bought this back in may cause my touch pad sucks. I've used the earlier models in the past but this newer one is way better.

    It has a USB receiver or you can use Bluetooth, the resolution is alot better and you don't need alot of realestate for a track ball

  5. I found the user manual for the Furman unit, and it is MOV based:

    You can read about MOV's here, and see all the caveats:

    Here's a good overview of MOV vs. non-MOV approaches, albeit from one of several vendors that make non-sacrificial high-joule devices:

     

     

     

    Many things in life are opinions. This is not one of them; there are cold hard facts regarding this stuff. And life experience verifies it.

     

    This has been covered dozens of times in this forum, and there are thousands of pages in pro forums, with rarely a dissenter.

     

    https://zerosurge.com

     

    Lots of good info at that site, and it's easier and quicker to digest than to point you to an independent non-vendor site.

    They're plugins look like SurgeX but I like they're gear as well. would be nice to use one of those instead of my Furman to get better

    and consistent protection and free up space in the rack. I use a racked switch box to power up/down

  6. I build my key mix in my interface, send a FOH from there as well, run the FOH mix, a separate key mix and ambient to my

    Ashley to mix and monitor. I have MADI now on mu interface allowing for IP monitoring so I can create a personal mix but

    every one else has to get on the same page.Component stack 4a rear.jpg

  7. I like to draw a bit, simple, mechanical, to answer my own, if I was to design/build a stand for my needs? I came up with this,

    to build you would need to know how to or know a TIG welder which is best for Aluminum, you would have to know the type

    of Aluminum to use. The second tier crossbar fitting might need a little mill work they need to adjust up/down for fine tuning

  8. Right. That is why you have to exchange the backpanel. The USB-B socket is on the HX3.5 mainboard.
    Yea, the mini isn't integrated to the board just screwed to the back panel. I don't think I'd have a problem with the header on the back of the display as well.
