Hi, I'm an old Pro Tools user and using 12.1HD with a Mac trashcan and an Apollo 8. I also use Studio One V3 and am 'weaning' myself off of Pro Tools. I'm using 2 26" Samsung HDMI monitors with DVI inputs. These monitors run at 1900x1200 resolution. I'd like to be able to run both monitors and both MTi's at the same time. I'm currently running the monitors through an active TB (or miniport) to DVI adapter and they work fine. The Mac has 2 D300 video cards so I guess I should be able to run 2 monitors with each card. I'd like to continue using the two monitors if I can to keep racks and efx open when mixing.
I'm looking to get some setup info ahead of time since they won't be in stock for shipping for a few weeks. I have 2 thunderbolt ports available yet at the back of the mac so I don't think I'll need a dock or expander. I also have a 7 port USB 3.0 hub with 5 ports available.
What caveats should I be aware of? What cables and/or connectors will I need to purchase?
Apologies if this sounds sophomoric. Not having worked with the Raven or set one (or two) up, the process is a bit abstract to me at this point.
