Here's mine.There are no poweramps in it because I use powered Meyer Sound cabinets.I also use a Millennia TD-1 for my DI that sits on top of the rack. I just ordered a Radial rack mount multi DI that I will be adding to this rack so I can run stereo sends to the PA from my TC Electronics 2290! I tried it this weekend and it sounded unreal! I sent a mono DI without effects to the PA with the TD-1 ,and used two cheaper DI's for the 2290 for stereo effects to the PA just to see how it would sound before spending the money on the Radial. It worked great!!!

New Eden Navigator & B poweramp on the way... bout time I posted a pic on this silly thread.
I started this to get a good idea of what people use in their rackmounts besides poweramp\preamps so thanks everyone for displaying effects, compressors, power conditioners, tuners etc. Its been a huge help! Great discussions.
NOW LETS PLAY BABY! :bassist:

Not to down-play your idea of sending a stereo feed to the FOH, but most shows are in mono. The sound guy/gal may say sure send me a stereo signal and either A, Only use one channel and save space on the mixer or B, Pan both channels to the center.

I know 90% of the gigs I do are in mono. Either stereo does'nt matter for the venue, or even if I wanted to pan, it would not matter because they bridged their amp in mono. Like I said, not to shoot you down, just a heads up. Of course with a rig like that you are probobly playing pretty nice gigs, where this is not an issue.
 
i noticed alot of people have a dbc 166xl compressor thing in their racks

how do u like them? they are 2 channel right?

so technically, u can set up say channel 1 for finger style, and channel 2 for slap style? is this correct?
