LO Posted June 19, 2004 Report Share Posted June 19, 2004 Thinking about redoing me box in to an M/C clone My question is about the LCDs, I cant decide if I should use a graphical or standard 2x40 LCD(s), the 2x40s look like they may be slightly more ergonomic?Thoughts.....? ???peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilo Posted June 19, 2004 Report Share Posted June 19, 2004 I use 2 2x40 lcd, but I put them like that :01234567890123456789Chan 1 chan 2 chan 3 chan 4*************Chan 1 chan 2 chan 3 chan 4*************_______________*************Chan05 chan06 chan07 chan08_______________*************Chan05 chan06 chan07 chan08_ : space* : unused character on lcd.so this way I loose some character on it, but have the same space between each channel (1").I don't know what to do with the unused character on the lcd. my front panel is a 19" 9HE rack front panel.I don't have picture yet as it's not drill (I'm waiting for some tact switch knob for drilling it).I prefere it instead of putting a space between channel 4 and 5... and so this can fit on the 19" front panel.

d2k Posted June 19, 2004 Report Share Posted June 19, 2004 I use the 2x40's as Frank done with his 1st Beast-LC - works best for me as it's like a channelstrip... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doc Posted June 19, 2004 Report Share Posted June 19, 2004 I also used 2 2x40 LCD's. The main reason was the compatibility to the ready LC_application :PDoc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LO Posted June 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 Thanks guys :DHey Dan you have made a box with a GLCD & also one with 2 x 2x40's? ..........so the 2x40's are best in your opinion? (probably cheaper to?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d2k Posted June 20, 2004 Report Share Posted June 20, 2004 Ye - I *had* a box with a 240x64 - that was takin apart to make way for the new.I prefer 2x40s over the glcd too as u can have the info on screen aligned perfectly with the rest of the channelstrip elements (fader/buttons/encoder) - makes for a more coherent design i think...

LO Posted June 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 hmmmm.... thats what I was thinking.The 240x64 did sound kinda cool but the 2x40 more effective to usethanks heaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
