Wow! awesome job!!

[@TrashPanda-kr2me]

You put so much effort in to building both racks that you didn’t buy a label maker 🤦‍♂️ But that is the beauty of building your own custom rack is that it is Custom. But ay you do you :)

Wow great

Fly my guy 🔥

[@vaughnhunt9480]

Could you link us to the hinged rack doors and battery backups you use? Amazing build!

Life is complicated enough surely.

First off, awesome presentation, very nice gear. But why Dante vs. an already available AVB, or MADI ? Does MIDAS not do AVB? I like the 24 mic's cause every things out the front, I can troubleshoot without leaving my chair. I have a similar rig, UFX II has 12 outs 12 ins and a 12 mic, but I'm doing monitor mix and front of house for live shows. I use totalmix remote on an I-pad, I keep all the ethercon crap out of the cabinet, it was too difficult to isolate the noise. Cool to have a battery, if everything is acoustic, life goes on. Not a rig for hot weather, packed very tight. I use the USB ethernet to the 12 mic, no need for a router. And now I added an Enttec USB to control a DMX lighting bus. I play guitar and sing also. but everything is set before a show, I just connect everything, and load the file from last performance. Lighting scenes are controlled via Ableton Live and a midi foot switch. The monitor mix sound quality is jaw dropping. Why people use wedges I don't know.

Where can we hear the final recording?

[@gikusu]

Can you please put a list of where to get all the components? So... many.. useful... bits...

[@FVDaudio]

✨✨👌🏻👌🏻

[@bits-bytes]

Impressive. May I ask a question. I see a lot of equipment inside the rack, including in the bottom drawer. What about air circulation and heat dissipation? Isn't there a bit of heat build-up, I can't see any fans. I have UFX III, 12Mic and Octamic in a 23 cm deep rack, but I use a 4 RU rack so that the air can still circulate a little. Many thanks.

[@roncoleman5007]

Excellent setup. What are the speakers show and timecode 4.56?

[@pdmcrew80]

Fluid Audio Image 2.

[@jasonlajuene2036]

What kind of XLR cables are they ??

[@magoostus]

how did you setup QoS DSCP levels for the dante network switches, or does ubiquity not even support hardware QoS...?

[@beethreeLIVE]

what type of ethernet cables are those? the right angle and well braced at the termination looks very nice

[@LaminarSound]

While thats a brilliant setup, it seems like an awful lot of tech, to accomplish a fairly simple recording/monitoring task. Thats gotta be well over $10k in gear to record and monitor a 4 piece group live. Either way, you thought of everything man its very impressive and i admit you can accomplish much more than a 4 piece group with that rig.

They could have gone with a cheaper AD DA. Ferrofish..but hey.
