My new system, just finished building it last week.

The previous unit was made of MDF, and was just too darn big and heavy to lug around, so I figured it was time for a rethink. This one is made from carpet-covered plywood, and features the new Behringer DDM4000 digital MIDI mixer, alongside a DAC-2 and Gigaport soundcard.

The internal PC is an AMD system, with dual core processor and 2GB of RAM. Video is courtesy of a 256MB Geforce FX5200, a little old these days but still working fine for me for video and karaoke. The cabinet contains an internal C drive, plus two drive caddies for music and video. There is also a secondary LCD screen below the monitor for previewing external video sources (there is a 4-way video switcher built into this console) or checking the master output.

Round the back, there's the full compliment of audio/video in/outs, and the power connector. There's a card reader and 2 USB ports on the front, and a 12v socket near the monitor to plug in a gooseneck lamp. Oh, and a built in radio mic for good measure.
