Show us your Rack! 19 inch format love

If I may, where did you source those shelves? They are far more efficient than the ones I am using now which take up an entire rack space just for the shelf as it is more of a box, and not open on the front and back like yours. Thanks in advance!

I got mine on Reverb here-

Your setup is super baller btw :slight_smile:

Yeah it’s a unique sounding FM, very futuristic to me.

Sweet vz10! I always likes those. I think they would have given Yamaha some real competition if they didn’t say “Casio” on the front.
Nice marantz deck too.

What did you do with the TX81Z?

Passed it on along with the Wavestation. All great synths, just always wanted a VZ.

And my buddy @Scot_Solida just happened to have one :slight_smile:

Darn, the power supply went in mine and i do miss it… the VZ is far more worthy of the 19 inch real estate though…

As much as I’m down with the vz like everyone else…
I think you showed me it’s the marantz I’m missing in my rig…

It’s a fairly standard deck, no advanced features or anything… I got it to impart real tape hiss and saturation on synth parts (Lyra especially) to then sample into the SP. I’m sure I’ll figure out other uses tho :slight_smile:

Love this thread. Been considering growing my MKS-70 into a rack stack that includes ESQ-M, Pulse or SE-1X, and perhaps an old EMU sampler.

But in the meantime I can live vicariously through these great photos.

+1. While I dream of Kevin Shields-esque rack towers.

not too crazy/sexy, compared to what else is here. but it’s the audio hub of my studio. I really need better label work on the patch bay too…

Crikey, those are filled with unobtanium.

It’s still interesting to me that for such a good product, the market apparently didn’t support it. Maybe the price point didn’t work. Jim@SSL commented that they moved really slowly said in 2016 on GS “It was one of those things that looks right on paper and sounds right as a product but never really sold enough.”
