Hello
I have a 10" technics SH-DJ1200 mixer.
And a serato box version 1 (the first, big one).
I’m trying to find a mixer case where the serato box will hide in the well.
I would like the leave the serato box hooked up to the mixer when i transport it.
I’m also considering using a ground extender so that the grounds on the mixer are a little easier to access (I could mount these ground extensions to somewhere on the case with easy access). Any thoughts on that?
I appreciate that! Thank you. I do know about the internal grounding thing - I guess I’m a little nervous to do such a thing on my babies (12 years rocking the same 1200’s!). Are there risks or downsides?
The ground connector on my mixer is in a really bad place, below all the RCA wires, so hard to access in a case, that’s why I’m trying to make the ground thing easier.
I tried, I couldn’t do it with my current case/mixer setup.
I have a Rane TTM-56 and a Road Ready 10" mixer case.
Mixer Dimensions (WxHxD): 9 x 13 x 3" (22.86 x 33.02 x 7.62cm)
I could maybe fit it in if I had some lower profile RCA’s, but it’d still be really tight. I know my friends Numark mixer is a little shorter, so that could potentially work. Right now I just need about an inch or a little more room to fit it all in.
And about the internal grounding? I don’t know the first thing about it except that it exists, and seems like a good idea. The ground wires are def. a pain in the ass.
All and all though, it’s pretty simple. I want to get a good laptop stand that has a spot for the Serato Box anyhow, so that’s how I plan on keeping it. I unplug just the Serato Box/Cables to bring around with me anyhow (friends have tables) so having it really compact isn’t my personal focus. I could see how it would be really helpful if you were moving your entire setup a lot however.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to do that. My technics mixer is 12 1/64" high.
And you say you need an inch or more - so it sounds like it might be too tight. Maybe with some right angle short RCA plugs if I can find them.
