First of all, apologies if I've put this in the wrong section, I didn't think it should go in the Project logs because its not exactly a computer project (BUT DONT LOOK AWAY IT INVOLVES MULTIPLE COMPUTERS!! 
)
right,
so I was getting bored of my current setup, i hate staying in the same place and having my setup in the same orientation. I've decided to make my room more 'studio' like. I wanted to make sure i had a proper monitoring 'triangle' and have my mixer in front of me and my guitar amp along the length of one wall.
The reason i wanted my amp against the wall is so that it is isolated as much as possible, so that I hear what is coming through the monitors and not through the amp (what comes through the monitors is what the microphone hears, instead of what you hear which includes all the reflections of walls etc)
I also wanted more desk space
so on with the pictures
Before: the mixer was next to/behind me
white spiriting the table and pulling the table out:
first cable picture...yum :/
moved stuff:
rack in its current state/position
cable mess after pulling out main snakes from the back of the rack
behind the rack atm....
err which cable was it i needed again? :/ (there appears to be a problem... a knot)
mixer in position
back of mixer
i can see each cable and where it goes
2 screens in place
rack moved over to (near) new place
all 3 screens in place and tv working, ready for Doctor who xD
my ingenious cable routing/screen stand, used an old speaker box to put the screen on, just so happens to have two conveniently placed wholes that I could run cables through
inside back of rack
my pc's new home
underneath desk (i do have a 1500W Power Amp for the big sub, but it is currently on loan to someone for the weekend
old dell dimension 5000 server/test machine
rack moved into final place, can't believe this lot only requires 3 power cables and the two others! (one power is on the other side)
behind the rack now... (its a lot worse than the photo shows)
amp/guitar corner
FINAL PICTURES
and that's is
took about 5 hours to do and I'm really pleased with it like this, especially the monitoring position (an exact 50inch equilateral triangle between my ears and the speakers for anyone who's interested... )
so yeh thanks for reading
