Re: [LCtalk] Is this a viable set up

Why don't I ever get a hotel room like that?

Amanda,

I don't know much about Max MSP, however my understanding is that you can 
generate UDP commands from Max that will in turn control the Lanbox.  The 
Lanbox would be the central hardware control device that would control your 
various outputs.

Back to the question of multiple Lanboxes, If you have to drive 15 valves, you 
could do that through four / 4 channel relay packs. Relay packs such as 
http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/?sku=803168 could be used to drive 
secondary circuits for the solenoids. If for example the solenoids run on DC, 
a DC driver could be controlled through the outputs of the relay packs. This 
is where your hardware folks would come in.
