I finally rebooted the Man Cave and re-arranged everything to give me more space and control over video, lighting and sound so I can improve my YouTube channel for you awesome subscribers and I wanted to share the end result with you.
With my new layout I now can move the camera further away from the desk and also position the lights in much better positions to do video recording. I can also now capture directly from the center screen of the setup to a separate computer using the Elgato Game Capture HD and some clever wiring with an HDMI switch and HDMI splitter allowing me to capture XBOX and PC and also record microphone input voice over in real time.

I also have a Mackie Mixer Model 802-VLZ3 that is used for mixing all of the analog audio outs from my computers ASUS Xonar STX and my XBOX 360 along with either a headset microphone or a phantom powered studio microphone.

My primary sound system is a Logitech Z-5500 setup connected with both fiber optic (TOSLINK) and analog from my ASUS Xonar STX so I can listen to 5.1 surround on both XBOX and PC while recording via the Elgato in stereo. This is a very flexible setup!

I now have my TrackIR 5 Pro and my Wacom Tablet connected always and in a place where can easily access them and then put them away. Prior to this I had to take them out of a drawer and hook them up with wires everywhere and then put them back away and try not to tangle everything up, this will work much better.

I also have a second workstation with two 24" IPS panels in Portrait mode that gives me another flexible option for surfing the web, coding or video capture and editing. I wouldn't recommend that layout for a daily all activities computer but I would recommend it for a secondary computer. I now have all of my technology in one corner of the room so I can simply access everything and as a result the room feels so much larger then it did prior to be re-organizing.

I did have to get rid of the stereo receiver and the extra speakers but they were taking up a lot of room and I was not using them that often since I already have a killer sound system on the computer and my second computer has studio monitors which produce far better sound then the floor standing speakers. I am going to need to have a yard sale to get rid of all this technology I'm no longer using :D

I also got rid of massive amounts old electronics that were just laying around that I knew I would never get around to using again, this freed up a lot of space! I am still working hard to cleanup the rest of the Man Cave but it is going to take time to get everything just the way I want it because I had far too much crap.

Let me know what you think about the new Man Cave layout and check out my other videos and share your feedback!
