Rack Unit/Keyboard Live Rig Solution

jimi_t · 13-09-2006 5:52pm #1

I've a few rack units (synths, effects, sampler) for my 88 key MIDI controller keyboard. I also have a few desktop esque modules which are 2u/3u high and can have rack ears attached to them (Novation Nova for example).

I need to find some way of mounting some of the units in front of my keyboard so I've live access to their front panels while I'm sitting behind the keyboard :
i.e. some sort of hybrid rack that can raise about 3 or 4 foot off the ground. Any thoughts?

Something like that? Doubt it'd be sturdy

Fair play! That is exactly what I was getting at

I thought I'd have to make a DIY one out of wine crates or something and I went through the Thomann Rack/Case hardware thing at least 4 times.
In terms of sturdiness, it'll only be for Bedroom use to try and keep the crap off my desk - as long as it doesn't fall backwards with the weight I should be allright - I'll look into a viable gigging solution when my talents are called for :P
