alphajerk Posted July 14, 2000 Share Posted July 14, 2000 im looking for info on getting the monitor and keyboard/mouse farther away from the cpu. anyone seen a device that will do this??? also what is everyone using for HD enclosures. im getting ready to buy 3 more for a total of 4 drives that i need in an external case. i dont need hotswapability. some of those RAID drive cases look sufficient but i cant find any raw. if you could email me in case the post deletes itself before i get a chance to see it this time! sorry to repeat for those that might have answered already. alphajerk FATcompilation "if god is truly just, i tremble for the fate of my country" -thomas jefferson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uh Clem Posted July 14, 2000 Share Posted July 14, 2000 I did some research on this lately since I had a similar issue and I found: http://www.datastoragedepot.com/docs/prod.disk.ext.html http://www.hollyintl.com/scsi.html http://www.storcase.com/dsilo/default.asp?ml=0 http://www.cablemakers.com/lvdcases.html http://www.trimm.com/UT8J/UT8J.html http://www.magma.com/ I needed more PCI slots so, I ended up getting the rack mount Magma and a Seagate Cheetah 74GB SCSI Ultra 160 drive. I think the tower Magmas look like they have move drive space. I could only put two drives in my rack version. The Magma is also Digidesign certified, so I felt like it actually might work and it has been great. The others I can't vouch for - the price seems to vary widely. No idea on keyboard/mouse extension stuff - I have seen something recently - maybe on Roger's forum seems like he mentioned a product. ------------------ Steve Powell Bull Moon Digital Atlanta GA www.mp3.com/stations/bullmoondigital www.thedurians.com www.mp3.com/thedurians Steve Powell - Bull Moon Digital www.bullmoondigital.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alphajerk Posted July 15, 2000 Author Share Posted July 15, 2000 and anyone ever tried to hook up two keyboards and mice to a computer at the same time? im trying to figure out the best way to make a DAW and a MIDI station work together. like sharing a midihub maybe so on one machine you could do all the unisyn editing and sample editing and the other runs the digital audio and possibly where the sequencing data shows up. anyone got ideads on how to set this kind of thing up??? i can go into more detail of the setup if anybody has ideas. alphajerk FATcompilation "if god is truly just, i tremble for the fate of my country" -thomas jefferson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donfolkcafe.com Posted July 15, 2000 Share Posted July 15, 2000 We us a system by Gefen for extending the video and keyboard of our Protools. It used 2 boxes that are connected by cat 5 cable. We have 2 of them working for dual monitors. It works great. USB has a 15' limit to total distance unless you extend through a hub or just hope it works if you go longer.
