Video Displays position with PC

[Riccardo Corbari]

Hi. in a production environment, Where do you prefer to place the computer's monitors? after the ProControl meter bridge, just in front of you, or on a side-desk with keyboard and mouse?

Take a look how I did it, you can see it here and here and here.

The photos are mouse sensitive roll-overs and show my control room with a Pro Control Main unit. The monitors are 2 x 20" LaCie TFT's, the stands are positioned after the meter bridge but the TFT's themselves reach a few cm. over the meter bridge. You can see a little more detailed photo of this at the first link, scroll down to the remote control of the Grace Design m906.

I find this setup very handy, btw, the USB keyboard is on a trolly mounted under the ProControl, the mouse is on a small wooden shelf mounted under the table at the right hand side

Thank you, that's how I set my monitors. I think that as soon as I can afford the expenses, I'll have a duplicated monitor for an editing/midi place behind the PC.
Good idea to put the keyb under the PC, I can't do it right now because the PC is lower, but I'll do it in the future. Do you know where to find cheap USB and DVI splitters? Thank you,
