Thanks fellas! This is what I plan to put in the rack case: Emu XL7 (on top, where the mixer would normally go) MOTU 828MkII MOTU MIDI Express 128 Raxxess Drawer (4 spaces - for storing the Micromodular, EH16, their power adapters, power strip, cables, manuals for MOTU units, etc.) That's pretty much it, though I may add a Furman Power Conditioner at some point in the future. I'm not a solo looper, actually. I'm the guy in our band who loops the bassist, manipulates our violinist's signal, and throws in some synth on occasion. This Gator case looks to be about $30 cheaper than its SKB competition (SKB Mini Gig Rig). Paolo --- Jesse Ray Lucas <jlucas@neoprimitive.net> wrote: > > Be careful.
