Supra, how did you gain all your width?
Where you naturally wider shaped or did you have a particular exercise that created the huge width?
 
If any of you guys are looking for a cheap way to really cut down the noise on the DP400, here are some pics of the box I built:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7ddhnyfshrsd3zp/AABYpwCGv3_4vIrohqXqpmv1a?dl=0#/

It’s really easy and total cost is about $15. I went to Michael’s Craft Store (you can also find the materials at Wal-Mart but Michaels is closer to my home) and got a heavy cardboard box - the ones used for storage - about the size of a large shoe box. Get some seat padding and cut out a piece for the top and the bottom of the box. You’ll need to decrease the thickness of the padding and the layers peel apart really easily. Get a can of spray adhesive and paste the padding to the top and bottom. The box I got had a label area on one side so I cut that part out so the USB and power cord could come out. On the other side, I made a small hole just large enough for the tubing. The extra padding I place inside to help to muffle the sound more.

It’s crude and simple, but it works. I’m designing a better box now, but for the time being, this one does the trick.

How long did it take your order to ship. i ordered the dp 4000 on the 30th, and its still not here.
 
I just lay a pillow over mine to reduce the noise.

Yep. I use a Mac and had to install on Windows with VMWare. Make sure you get it connected to Com 3 - that's what worked for me.

Nice work! I figured out vmware last week and it's working out well too.

Looks amazing!
 
Anyone have any software that is having problems with win 7?
 
Supra, I am looking to add an air pump to my training tool set. If I have BM X40 already, do you think the fairly hefty investment in the DP4000 is worth it? The price just sets me back a bit.
