Buy a fuck ton of Velcro cable ties and group cables together. Any hardware that will be regularly connected to and disconnected from should have dedicated space. Any hardware that won’t be used all the time should generally not be visible unless in use. So, hide your MIDI keyboard, or whatever.

minus-squarefoggy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoZip ties are designed to be used to hold things together tightly if you max tighten zip ties around cables, you will see packet loss damage and interference. Also they are a pain in the ass to add/remove cables from. Velcro 4 ever

Velcro straps work just as good as zip ties.
Zip ties are designed to be used to hold things together tightly if you max tighten zip ties around cables, you will see packet loss damage and interference. Also they are a pain in the ass to add/remove cables from.
Velcro 4 ever
Cable runs > Velcro > zipties > staples
