Rockville RRB50 5U Rack Bag Double-Sided 12" Depth, Padded Protection, Shoulder Strap, Dual Compartments, for Mobile DJs and Audio Pros

I recently took on a job working as a sound engineer for a local church in the town that I live in As I was running their mixing desk for their music group, I needed to run an effects rack on the mixing board to process some of the various different vocals and instruments. I have a few sound processers that I needed a rack case that was light, shallow and something to allow me to have the processors all wired up, ready to go. I have a few rack cases here in my house that I use for amplifiers but the cases alone are heavy, and bulky. Yes, they would do the job but I needed something better than what I have currently. I saw this case here on Amazon and figured I give this one a try. Love the fact that it has a zippered pocket to store extra cables if necessary and zipped covers to transport the gear. This case can not weigh more than 5 pounds empty and with the rigid structure and the rack rails, this case is a pretty solid made case. Made my job having the effects processors I use racked up nice and neatly and wired up to allow me to get them connected to the inserts of the mixing board very quickly!Now if the rack case with all the processors was only lighter in weight..... LMAO Weighs in a staggering 36 pounds with all the processors pictured here. (NOT A FLAW OF THIS CASE BY ANY MEANS!) Just me being silly here and having some heavy equipment...lol

I have two of these I use for my wireless rigs. I usually set up a show for a week run, and it's nice to take the covers off. One cover comes off very easily. The other is a little snug. Two features I wouldn't mind seeing would be rear rails and side handles. You could forgo the longer straps for side handles.

The design of this bag, along with the weight is ideal for my use. Purchased it and now it is a very quick set up for my band. Unfortunately the only down side I have is the zipper for the top pocket broke about 4-5 gigs in and now I can't store anything in that pocket, which was perfect to hold the items I couldn't leave plugged into my rack. So I am debating whether to buy a second one. I really like the size, weight and ergonomics of this, just wish the zippers would have lived. I guess we'll see.

I was looking for a 4 to 5 unit rack that I could move around easily and this one was perfect. Good quality, so it was a very good purchase.

Literally having zippers break after 2 weeks and straps pulling off. This thing is garbage!

The zippered fabric cover seems too narrow for the wood rack, so it takes effort to get the zippers around the 90 degree turn from the short side to the long side of the rack. The only time I zip it is when taking it to a gig. The first zipper broke a few months ago; the second one broke yesterday. If you plan on taking this out of the house, be careful.

Love the portability of this case. Fits my32 channel mixer and power conditioner perfectly. Can’t beat the price.very happy with this purchase!!

EDIT: I updated my review from 1 to 3 stars. After some hassle, I was sent a complete replacement. I was only asking for and expecting a cover, but they sent me an entirely new unit. Despite the problems and hassles I experienced, I was made whole with a replacement unit. I'd like to give credit where credit is due.------The plastic buckles that are used to attach the shoulder strap are made out of very weak plastic.The buckles on both sides immediately broke upon the first use of the shoulder strap.I purchased this Rockville bag because of its lightweight "grab and go" form factor. I play a lot of rooftop bars, which requires climbing flights of stairs. Practicality and low weight are a must.I'm actually glad that the straps broke immediately and not on a gig. I could've been climbing a flight of stairs. Had the strap broke, my $1,600 rig would have tumbled down the stairs.I broke off the broken plastic buckles (which was surprisingly easy to do), and replaced them with two 2" carabiners. Then I replaced the strap itself with a sturdy strap. I purchased the strap and carabiners after the fact on Amazon.If you purchase any Rockville product, just keep in mind that you get what you pay for. I was willing to take a chance on this 5U rackcase because I liked the form factor.I'll likely not ever purchase anything from Rockville again given the poor quality of this case.We'll see how long this case lasts. If/when it breaks down, I'll just spend the money on a better case.No more Rockville products for me after this. I learned my lesson.
