I have a small 19" rack and I have installed my 16x2 rack into it.
I put 4 screws into the nuts at the side of the rack:
4 aluminum angle are screwed into the 19" rack:
Now I easily can put the AE Modulare in or out of the rack:

I just bought a 19" rack for super cheap and I wanted to find a way to mount (part of) my AE system into it for gigging. I was going to resurrect my thread on the subject, but chiming in here might be better. I decided to first reinforce the nuts in the side panels. I think too much strain will get them to fall out, so I got some 1/16" aluminum bars, cut to length, drilled holes, and epoxied them to the sides. This way the force on the nut is spread out across the whole side. Then I made little rack ears, kind of like your design. It looks like you bent the aluminum yourself, which I opted to get some angled aluminum and then cut to length/drilled the holes. Since my goal is to make it a gigging machine, I still have to figure out how to make it so I can transport it while it is patched up. I think I'll have to use some sort of stopper. Anyways, here are my pictures!   |

Just a thought/suggestion, can you set the AE further back into the cabinet with larger brackets, then the patch could be protected? Well the lid does have some clearance, so I can kind of just tilt it downwards, but I'll have to see how I can make a stopper so that it will protect the cables. It is coming together!   I'm debating on how to integrate the non-AE stuff. I'm tempted to put velcro all over the bottom shelf and then place pedals/synths down there. I still need to do a lot of cable management. My goal is to do live looping with a guitar/bass with AE as the drummer. I keep getting torn if I want to make another signal path so I can have a bass path and a guitar path. I could theoretically just do a single path as I can do program switches for the guitar preamp and effects... |
