Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. can this monitor be used for Zoom?

A: The Steven Slate Audio Raven MTI2 is not a standard computer monitor. It is a multitouch display screen designed to be used as a control surface for a DAW (digital audio workstation) It connects to a computer using standard HDMI cables and USB 2.0, and an iLok dongle is required for operation. I would not recommend purchasing it for Zoom, though it would probably work. You can search under "Computer Monitors & Displays" to find a large selection of much better options for 27" monitors to use for Zoom at a fraction of the price.
