how many rack spaces will the TI desktop take up?

[zvenx]

Hi, new member.
For about five or so years I have been putting off buying an Access Virus....I have decided that my last hardware synthesizer purchase will be an Access Virus TI Desktop when it comes out.

Does anyone know how many rack spaces it will require?

thanks

thanks,
that was my guess, but anyone know whether it is four or five? I am reshuffling stuff in the studio this weekend.

Ten, are you the same Ten from the UAD forum?

just remember to make space for the cables at the back !!

that's the part I am not sure about.
It says the I/O's can be rotated 90 degrees.

i will ad 8cm to the specs here for cabling


Virus TI Desktop:

? Height: 8 cm (3.2 inches)
? Width: 47 cm (18.5 inches)
? Depth: 18.8 cm (7.4 inches)
? Weight: 3.6 kg (7.2 pounds)

so 18,8 + at least 8cm =26.8 cm

you dont want bent midi /audio/ digital cables

just to add that the official word is four rack spaces.
"Thank you for your mail. The Virus TI will use 4 units rack space. Unfortunately we don't have any
pictures of the rotated outputs yet."
