Or get a mac.
Sorry, I just needed to say, I've been using multiple monitors for many years on macs, and it's been good, but since Catalina, the way MacOS handles displays is fantastic! I just wish Avid would follow up.
Sorry to interrupt.

This is tempting! I’m using an Nvidia M2000 card with 4 outputs, and don’t have nearly as many options as I’d like. Worth a try, I suspect. Thanks for the heads up!

I'm pretty happy with 3. Mix, edit, & plugs/misc.

Interesting utility. Personally, I've had very little issues here with both 2 and 3 screens

I’d like to be able to clone my #2 monitor (edit window) to my #3 monitor (in the vocal booth) but still have independent resolution control over the cloned monitor, instead of having that pair default to the lowest resolution of the two. But I’m probably dreaming, eh?

Shouldn't be too difficult with todays screen sharing technology and cheap tablets? Over wifi. Even on windows?

Nvidia tech support said if you “clone” a monitor with one of their cards, that’s just the way it is. Hoping someone had a workaround.
