I've been
running my studio on a 50 foot snake;
ADAT,
keyboard, mouse, spdif, power, etc, for several
years.
No problems under any circumstances. Are you
experiencing something weird?
No, not really. Just seems that most places sell
cables
up to 10m, and 10m seems to be the max distance
recommended,
and until you came along, I had not encountered
anyone using
50 foot ADAT cables so I was a little bit worried
that 50
feet might prove to be a problem, so I was glad to
be able
to find out it doesn't seem to be a problem.
The only place I see problems on the 50ft snake is
with dual monitors. When the driver asks the monitors
what they are the second one doesn't always return an
answer. My assumption at the time was that the problem
was due to cable length. I wrote the display types
into the xorg.conf file which solves that. I'm no
longer convinced the problem was cable length. It's
probably a driver issue.
