Big LCD screen in studio/control room?
Hi
I am designing a new project studio that will be atached to my house and be an occasional control room and a regular place to compose, mix and master ( and practice the drums......).
It will be about 12ft deep and I was considering getting a big plasma screen so that I could sit away from the display and the speakers, have bluetooth computer keyboard and mouse, and a mixer and midi controller keyboard at my seating position.
THis is rather than having a big desk along one wall with a mixer on it with nearfields perched on the meter bridge and having to sit there all crammed up - or having the desk in the middle of the room and making it unusable for anything else.
This would mean the family could use the room as a kind of home cinema too when I am not working.....
I wondered if anyone had used a LCD TV screen (eg 1368x 768 32") for use as a computer monitor for work in a DAW when you are sitting 6 to 10ft from the screen?
Any views feedback appreciated on the wisdon (or lack of this idea...)
NB considering PMC speakers and a sub
