If someone wants a heavier duty case (that weighs more of course!) and
doesn't need the popup functionality fixed position cases designed for live
mixers can work really well.
Here's a picture of a EWI case I'm using. I modified it so the rails are
parallel to the case bottom instead of being angled. It's considered a 12U
with extra depth. I changed the angle of the rail mounts and swapped in some
14U rails:

These cases are a great value! Here's a link to the case on the seller's
site (Audiopile.net). It's only $120 plus shipping!

They also have standard 10U and 12U mixer racks you could use as-is or
modify to be flat. (only $100 and $110 respectively)
