Post Your Mac Setup: Past & Present (Part 20)

[gagigu]

As I'm moving out in the next few days I had to reduce my setup to a bare minimum and packed everything in boxes. Somehow I like how simple and minimalistic it looks. But for sure I miss the additional display space I had on both sides with the rotated 20" ACD's. Will figure out how my setup will look in my new home.

Love the simplicity right there. Slick!

Little update... added the X-Touch controller to interface with my X32 rack (bottom right) so now I can use physical sliders and buttons... instead of using a mixing app on my Mac Mini. Now... all I need is the X-Touch and iPad to adjust my mixes.

Also added the fake plant behind the iPad... Stole it from my wife's office...🫣 she wasn't happy...💀

Is power free where you live?

No. But I live in Phoenix, AZ. It's not my computers/displays that dominate my electric bill - it's air conditioning. Particularly in the summer.

I'll caveat all this though by saying that winter bills are usually around $130 for a 1600sq foot two bedroom home. That isn't anything that bothers me, but I imagine WOULD bother a single person used to paying much less than $100 a month in the summer. But there are three other people in the house.

Summer, especially August, is when we get hit the worst. AC bills hit around $450-500 during the summer. But it's PHX. AC is a necessity, much like a furnace is in the east during winter.
