What case is holding the TipTop racks? I have a similar set up using a mixer case, but I’d like something more vertical (without relying on a precarious guitar stand, as pictured below).

Funny, I’ve been thinking about a mixer case to let me fit another row and/or actually be portable :laughing: But I’d have to put my deeper rackmount stuff elsewhere if I did.

It’s just an OnStage Stands 12U tabletop rack stand, RS7030. The back of the legs are propped up on thick corrugated cardboard pieces that came with some Ikea furniture to bring it close to vertical.

It’s open all the way around, which was nice for plugging stuff in and terrible for travel, protection, and mounting busboards. So I cut some plywood to make partial sides and a back. My Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 in the top 1U keeps anything from falling in.

Ha, nicely done! I rather like the 1U top and bottom.

While the mixer case is portable, it does not close easily patched. It can be done, but the modules around the edges require low profile cables to make it work.

also would love to see this

Good luck in nabbing a RIP, they are crafted from purest unobtainium aren’t they?

I’ve kindly been provided one next month from a very cool dude helping me out

My Pleasure, Pokk
Martin sent me a nice note as well
It’s a joy to find a label and artists i was ignorant of doing work that i connect with
and it’s extra special to say so directly to the composer. Bravo

@pokk I echo @shreeswifty’s sentiments. There’s something special that you are doing with both the label and your music. Stuff I wouldn’t usually go for but I’ve been listening out for a few months now - the Andrea Taeggi release is outstanding. Martin emailed to thank me too :wink:
