I could swear in another thread you said your rack was "out of space"...  (?)

I did see him post that too mibby.  I think he needs to give that bus comp to me since he is out of rack space. 😄

That new bus comp is replacing my dbx 266xs compressor.

Here's the problem with racks and rack equipment.

My desk has 2 14u racks (left and right side).

By the time I have 12 spaces used on the left then next higher units just partially cover up the screw holes and thus I cannot secure those devices even though the units 'fit" right up to the rails. I would have to drill slightly larger holes in the units (I'm not willing to do that, so velcro is used just to be safe).

By the time I have 13 spaces filled on the right, I cannot fit a 14th unit in there.

I know what you mean Bapu,

I had the same problem also.  I purchased a rack with rails that didn't have the rack space count on them and I couldn't every thing in the rack evenly.  I then build by own rack case and used the NavePoint 14U Vertical Rack Rail Pair  from Amazon an I was finally able to get everything in the rack.  Not sure if it as the Rails or me just being patient when I entered my gear, but it's all in now.

My racks are part of the desk I purchased from Musician's Friend.

Yea, so was mine, that's why I build my own. I had the Studio RTA Project Station and side Car.
I got rid of the side car and build my own rack using pine wood.  I took the top off of the project station and just used the flat desk with Dual Monitors, a MCU Control surface, a Machine Mikro MK3 and an original Mackie Big Knob.

My right side rack,  My left side rack,  My "top of the desk" rack,  My cart.

 

Nice Gear Bapu.

That heritage Neve clone looks sweet and I want those Lindell compressors 👍.

I thought about getting 500 series rack gear,  but I don't think I am ready to take that step yet,  I need deeper pockets.  😁

In one sense the 500 series modules can be cheaper because you are not paying for power stages for each unit. Downside is small knobs and even smaller words. 🙂
