Re: Raxxess Converta Rack vs. ???




Be careful.  This looping thing tends to be a solo endeavor in a lot of 
cases.  If you are planning on going it alone, and you fill one of those 
Gator mixer racks all the way up with EDPs and effects, you may not be 
able to lift it alone.  I wasn't.  It was summarily axed.
