Rather than getting dual monitors you could get yourself a control surface, then you don't need to look at your mix window.

LOL
Too obvious eh?

“	Rather than getting dual monitors you could get yourself a control surface, then you don't need to look at your mix window.	”

The 01V serves as my control surface. But I still need to monitor it in the mix window coz it's not a dedicated software control surface with an lcd that you could see the parameters or where you are. Serves my purpose though...

wow, those audio monitors are very $$$$ing close to the computer monitors i'm supprised you havn't blown the tubes in them yet, like what happened in pure silk when the tannoy red devils were placed to close to the sony trinitrons. heh

JJ

as for the dual monitors , theres no point doing this unless you have at least a 21inch screen and your already running your monitor in no less than 1600 resolution.

hmmm...
had the monitors setup like that for almost 2 years now and had been using it almost everyday without problems. If they blow, so be it. Time to get new ones anyway. Thanks for the tip though.

maybe those ibm monitors are screened well, and i suppose those magnets arent too big on those drivers either, so thats probably why, as for the tannoys we were using , they were 18inch cones and the magnets were very powerfull, heh

DJ Fat Zed

Maybe the speakers are magnetically shielded??

monitors with 18" cones!!!!? mate i hope u had some others set up aswell cos mixin down on them would sound sh!t!
