Are there any flight cases that hold a mixer + X1?
i’m trying to figure out a way to get everything mobile, and the biggest component that is lacking some kind of storage is for the X1. i have the gig bag, but it only goes so far. there seems to be no way for me to find a 12" mixer + X1 into a flight case. i thought about getting a 19" mixer flight case and just foaming it up to accomodate the X1, but i am seeking better options.
Hello tuchubby,
I am from europe and the biggest company for flightcases is recordcase.de overhere. They have all types of flightcases, i got my case from this company too, its from zomo, and i use it for 2 years now, and its still good - the quality is really good. maybe they have the perfect case for you, too?
but this mount only does 12" (and 10" according to the pic). If there was a fully adjustable “bridge” like this one that goes out to as much as 19", i would be all over it. since a mixer + x1 does not equal 19" in width, it would be nice for it to be fully adjustable to have that snug fit. i’m not exactly ready to put down money on a 19" case for my 12" mixer to find out that it wont fit and look properly (e.g. too much foam).
@khemfusion
this could work!!! and looks dope for sure. But get sure, contact the guys from zomo and ask them if the x1 would fit! and the mixer, too
Please post a picture when u got it
@dj stifffy.
hmmm, i am not sure if it would be that easy. Maybe if you are a prof. craftsman. And isn t it more expensive if you build it by yourself?
Not really, over here a sheet of 4 ft by 8 ft ply which. Is 18mm works out about 20 euro, so with screws and all prob 40 euro, just takes time get an upholster to cover it for like a 10er and for 50 quid you have a one of a kind case. If you have any carpenter friends they might help, even lend you power tools.
Id say ill end up doing a custom one eventually, but id hate the thought of my setup being fixed, the 4 components my setups consists of can move aroung and be put anywhere, so there is no fixed layout, would merely just be for transport which I think a bag is easier…
Im sorry guys, but MODDING an original case is possibile but MAKING one is a tough job, especially for all the parts that go into a flight case (quality one).
So far the best thing for me is this case for my Ecler 4.0, it has space for A8 and cabling inside, I also thought of crafting some usb ports on the back of it to have it all nice and clean. In the end having this type of setup is the best for being both mobile and club since the x1s have their own cases.
Not wanting to upset anyone, but that Zomo case looks cheap. If I can give one piece of advice, it would be don’t buy the cheapest case you see, it’ll be cheap for a reason.
