Millenium Rack Bag 4

I bought this to carry a Soundcraft Ui16 digital mixer and it has been very impressive. I had wanted a hard rack case but as I was on a tight budget I opted for this option and it has served me well. Despite heavy use and being lifted in and out of the van hundreds of times the seams have held up well and the zippers - often the weak point of some gigbags I have had in the past - are still going strong. It's coped well with the odd knock and protected the equipment well. I have also been surprised that no tears have appeared, as again I have found this a problem with gig bags. The large pocket on the side proves handy and the shoulder strap always helps to cut the number of runs back and forth into a venue. I have tended to use it standing up with the mixer/stagebox in the top and the structure has remained pretty robust, with it holding its shape properly and sitting nicely well balanced on the stage. Although it's never been properly soaked, it has also seemed to be pretty weatherproof whenever conditions have been poor on a load in or out.

This bag deels sturdy and has a reassuring, not too much weight, so it could be used for your "mobile" rig or your studio rig.

I have a small studio and I was looking for a classic metal rack box but after researching I concluded this is a better solution, it's more sturdy than anything else in the pricepoint, it's more protected, just in case you move it, it's non reflecting and your gear is well protected from dust.
I only have solid-state rack gear, heat is not an issue, so I am able to close the back of the bag, with only a small opening for cables and that's it, when I'm not using the gear, I can always close the front too to protect the equipment, especially the pots.

For me, this is the best solution for tabletop racks.

The millennium rack bag is an ingenious idea. It is a huge hassle transporting rack equipment, whether from the practice space to the studio or even from home to a gig. Now there is an answer. The millennium rack bag is a sturdy casing with zipped front and back panels which allow easy access to your rack gear. Both panels have a Velcro strip which keeps them firmly stuck to the sides of the case when in use. The case features high quality zips that don't stick and a zipped pocket on the top of the case. There are rubber feet on the bottom to keep it from moving around. The rack is sturdy and it's a cool looking alternative to the traditional rack.
When the front and back panels are opened and bel crowd to the sides they provide the perfect hanger for spare leads or even for wrapping long leads around.
The rack unit inside the case is removable but it feels sturdier in the bag. Depending on the number or rack units you use there may be space on the bottom of the rack bag where you can Velcro your effects pedals for storage in transit.
Cheaper than a standard rack and transportable, plus the additional storage possibilities, and it comes in various sizes, why would you pay more for less.

I bought this bag expecting pretty much a flimsy plastic based bag that would work mostly as a dust cover for my gear, but I was pleasantly surprised when the built quality actually feels good, and this despite it's low weight. I think the case is made from pretty thing wood and the "face" for mounting the units are from pretty thick metal.

I've used mine for about 1 year now without any problems, I wish there was some cable management built in, and that there were more compartments. But I think I will buy a 2he high drawer and put it to the bag and everything should fit nice and good.
