Oops, indeed I meant video monitors. *blush*

Hi all,
As somewhat-on-topic posts seem to be welcome here:
1. When working with audio, do you use more than one monitor?
2. If so, how do you generally divide things up between the
monitors, for different stages of the process?
Two monitors... 4 workspaces. Not really standard I would imagine. One
workspace is all online stuff, browser on one side, terminal logged into
the server for irc, mail, server maint (using screen) on the other.
Workspace 2 is all audio, editor on one side and mixer on the other
(Ardour)... also some terminals around as I run from command line (makes
testing easier) and Open-Stage-Control because I do OSC testing right now.
Workspace 3 is open in case my wife asks for a scan or I want to update
the family web site with new pictures or whatever.
Workspace 4 (lower right) is my development set. left has Geany and right
has various terminals and file browsers open.
It used to be that if I was using a softsynth or hydrogen I would have
them in a separate workspace as well, but plugins have replaced
most of that any more. I also do more analog recording than synth as I
have not gotten the sound/feel I want from drum machine stuff... though
this may change things:
