Slobs, I actually removed my extra-comfy footstool before I took that panorama so you wouldn't think I was a complete  gentleman

 

Fixed it for you.....

 
He he... I was far too polite to phrase it in such a derogatory manner
 
Beag, are you stirring it up again
 
 
 

Would a projection screen work, I wonder...one of those 5' by 9' jobbies....

I use dual 22's. I'm probably the oddball here but I almost always have X1's track view stretched to span the two monitors and occasionally I will open plugin UI's on the second monitor or float the multidock there. I find it useful when editing to get a horizontal view of most of the project since I can jump around and find sections much faster that way.

EDIT: duplicate.

My setup

I'm now thinking I'll put a third monitor above my keyboards. I've been trying to find the extension arm for my monitor wall mount and have just turned the house upside down, which is shame really as I found it in my van................

....but that aside I've also realised that my screen management software (DisplayFusionPro) can't extend the desktop over two monitors and duplicate on the other one. Anyone know of any that can or is that not possible?

How's that for a thread turnaround? From singing the praises of a single monitor to convincing myself I need three in the space of a few posts....

With 2 geforce vid cards controlling 3 monitors you can set one vid card to display duplicates on its 2 outputs via the control panel. Otherwise, I have seen video display splitter cables (ie a double adaptor) in the past.

    I went from 3 monitors down to one with X1. Then I replaced my 19" with a 23" and I noticed that the 19" fit perfectly into my rack full of unused old gear. Now I use the second monitor for my audio interface GUI .                                                                                                                                                                                              " border="0" />                   

Cool user name Joe B!!! Take the cannolis but leave the stiff.

Now what I'd really like is a slide out MIDI keyboard tray for under my desk. You know, like the ones you can get for computer keyboards, but wider. It kind of sucks having both keyboard and MIDI keyboard on the same level. I usually have the music keyboard closest to me with the QWERTY keyboard behind it, but you know how much it sucks to have to reach over a music keyboard to type something. And I'm always trying to press an imaginary space bar on my MIDI keyboard

Thanks, I'm using ATi but I haven't really explored the possibilities from their software yet.
 
I've also found out that UltraMon has a mirror function that allows a user to effectively copy one monitor view to another. In addition DisplayFusionPro has a mirror to window function which isn't quite as efficient but does much the same. I'm now thinking I'll just ignore the third monitor for display as such until I need it at which point I have keyboard shortcuts to jump Sonar from display to display so that'll work as well.

That's exactly how I've started to use these ones. I've always had duals but at different resolutions which makes the stretch option interesting to say the least. With two identical monitors though it works great.
