> The flight cases will make my MOTM system cable for travel of any kind > safely... Actually... I've found that the way that the boards are mounted at a right angle to the panel makes them very prone to damage during transit. Problem is that the connections, on the pots especially, become weakened if the rack is chucked 15 feet in the air into air cargo hold, as is SOP for the airlines I've come to find out. (For the record, Lufthansa seems to be the worst offender, and Air France seems the kindest so far.) After making a few tours with the modules racked, I've taken to instead wrapping each one individually just like Paul mails them out -- bubble wrapped and in little boxes. Then I lose another day on the other end of the flight re-assembling everything. It's a real pisser, so much so that I'm seriously considering using a sampler live instead for any tours requiring airflight. Just fyi...... best, - Scott ____________ http://www.red-noise.com http://www.strawberryplanet.org
