Right now many people are uploading their rack gear for sale. To be honest it’s heavy it takes up space and much of it is old and many not high end grade. So you ask why would I mess with it? Well bargain hunters and repair diy people can make it bring a whole lot more for less money. Below you will find some example I was using to bring more to my keyboards, samplers and alternative track takes. Here I created two separate rack cases, one primarily for reverb/effects and the other to lift, sculpt and project my final results. I added a patch to the effects rack so I can quickly play with different settings outputting to my mixer channel aux. The other rack I added to my mixer main inserts for final gloss and lift but did also route it through a patch bay. The tube amp was used for powering my audio main monitors. Other than the tube amp most of these I bought cheap and or broken. They made fun projects to restore and most of the repairs were simple fixes. The key to picking easy fixes is not always straight forward. I collect a lot of spare parts and that always helps. I used to pull broken gear out of the graveyard all the time. Even if it doesn’t work there’s always parts on it that still does so save or sell.
