Desk Module Top Panel

 

Meter Bridge

 

The D-Control Desk Module ships with a solid, Lexan-covered 
metal panel in the meter bridge area.

If you choose to customize the meter bridge section of your 
Desk Module (by adding third-party meter elements or other 
hardware), you can order a replacement Lexan covering from 
Digidesign and trim it to fit your installed hardware. 

 

Rack Spaces

 

The 19-inch rack section on the D-Control Desk Module com-
prises a total of 11U rack spaces, and can accommodate the 
following:

• Top: 3U of deep rack gear (up to 12 in/30 cm deep) 

• Middle: 3U of shallow rack gear (up to 4 in/10 cm deep)

• Bottom: 5U of deep rack gear (up to 15 in/37.5 cm deep)

 

Work Space

 

The work space in the front of the Desk Module is suitable for 
supporting hardware such as audio equipment remote con-
trols or laptop computers, or work materials such as note-
books or clip boards. 

 

Rack Equipment Enclosure

 

The rack-equipment enclosure is a four-piece, open-bottom 
sheet metal box that can be attached to the bottom of the 
Desk Module to protect and hide from view any rack-mounted 
gear and cabling under the console.
