This is pretty much the rig I use for my computer and keyboard. Given the
state of my stereo (tv, vcr, dvd, tapedeck, 2 CD players, and 2 turntables)
I figured I ought to have a seperate setup for my computer and keyboard.
I will probably need to get some adapters at some point, as the 
circuit-bent modular synth rig I'm building is all on 1/8" plugs, due 
to the small size of many of the items.
