Thanks for the reply George. Doing my own search I've come up with KVM switches, which of course are a more exspensive solution. Wonder if anyone is using one? Seems you can operate up to a few hundred feet, but as I say our needs exstend to no more than ten feet at present. It might be worth throwing in here that we have two computers in the remote' room, and it could be useful to have alternate access to them both, although the one configured for audio use is the prime target here. Thanks.

Extension cables are available from most decent PC spares companies such as RS Components, CPC, etc.. I search on google.co.uk will be sure to produce plenty of choice.

Don't know how many responses this might get, if any, but wondered if anyone was linking their computer's keyboard, mouse and monitor via long cabling or some sort of interface box? I guess it's not too complicated to do this, but the idea is that we can access a computer in the next room, about eight to ten feet distant, so as to keep any computer generated noise out of our sound recording. Audio connection will be the least of our problems. Any thoughts on wired or wireless solutions would be appreciated.
