After rocking up to venues and setting up a laptop, switch and my
@chamsysltd console for a bit, I decided to modify this
@titanav.co 3ru rack case as a compact and travel ready lighting rig!
It was a tight fit, but managed to fit an Apple mac mini, focusrite 2i2, network switch, keyboard on a sliding tray, touch screen monitor and my Chamsys mini connect.
Big thanks to
@brenton.rake at
@brav.tech for helping make my vision come to light, especially for his masterful soldering on the I/O panel. Hit him up for all your custom rack needs, he does all kinds of rack setups you would be after.
The I/O features (L to R):
-HDMI out
-USB
-Audio in 1
-Audio in 2
-Audio out 1
-Audio out 2
-Artnet out
-5 pin DMX out
-5 pin DMX in
-Network 1
-Network 2
-Powercon
All this makes the rig versatile for multiple artnet connections, standard dmx I/O, timecode in, and ability to connect to an external monitor/TV for vis and speakers when programming. Plus setup and pack down is so fast!
The recent
@bestiesinyoursection tour was a good test for how well it works!
That is all.
