I'm looking into getting a line mixer that I can rack mount below my workstation desk. I will only be used as a monitor mixer and an input signal router into two ART Pro Channels into a MOTU 828mkII. The mixing is all done internally with CueMix console and the MOTU's inputs acting as an aux patchbay so mic preamps and EQs are not an issue.

I have a cheap midi keyboard CME U-KEY powered by USB from my new mac Pro, and connected to the 003 from its midi out to the rack's midi in port. there are noises coming from the mac's internal speaker, so the usb connection is working OK, but within pro tools, whilst it mostly recognises there is a midi signal coming in, i cannot get any sound out of pro tools, and cannot load any 'patches'.

I recently purchased a Mackie 800r to upgrade the pre's on my existing digi 002 rack. I connected them using a d-sub snake, which goes out from the Mackie and into the digi 002 through 8 1/4" cables.

What else do I need to do (software calibration, etc.) to get this setup to work?

Hello!

Ill be getting a console made by on the argosy D15 workstations, with an angled 8U space on both sides.

Is it ok to mount a Tape deck/Cd player (Tascam CDA500) in this rack ? Or should have one side modifies to a vertical rack 3U space ?

Thanks a ton!

Hello there,
I need some advice that worthed me to choose the right hardware for the best work and future investement too.but, i have limitation for the budget also.

My questions such as :

So I just moved my recently acquired (used) 2GHz p4 setup into a 3U rackmount case. Problem...the cooler that was on the motherboard when I got it (a CoolMax Aero) is too tall by about 3/8". I need to find a cooler that will fit in this case and not contribute too much noise. Any suggestions? Something fairly common that I might find locally would be great as time is an issue.

Just need some help deciding which one to buy. I heard good things about both. thanks...

just trying to decide what is better to get..the Digidesign 002 rack or the m-powered project mix i/o..they would both come out to around the same price range so i was wondering what would be better for the money...thanks
