How does this new display fit into my workflow? Does having a so-called UltraWide display make a difference? The issue with resolutionīefore I even received this monitor, I knew that I would have to overcome one major issue if I was going to be able to use it long term. LG’s 34UC98 UltraWide IPS monitor is not only extremely wide at 3440 x 1440, but it’s curved as well. With this in mind, I’ve been looking forward to going hands-on with a 21:9 display.
The extra horizontal real estate is also a nice option for watching movies shot with a 2.39:1 aspect ratio. With the recent popularity of extra-wide 21:9 monitors, I’ve come to understand that width can make a major difference in managing timeline-based editing workflows as well. When it comes to editing video and audio, the bigger the monitor the better. As someone who uses timeline-based apps such as Logic Pro X and Final Cut Pro X on a regular basis, horizontal display real estate is incredibly important to me.
