I think this might work:

It's only $102.95 US too, not too bad for SKB gear.  Anyone know the exact 
dimensions of a Command Station, with the black end caps on?

Unit dimensions 18.60 x 20.10

Is that inches?  I didn't think it was only 2 inches longer then it was 
wide.  What about the hieght?

It's in inches.  They have it listed on their site but I had a 
pullout flyer in Remix Magazine that had the dimensions on the back 
cover.

This is the documument that is on E-MU's website:

Thanx, I was looking in the spec section of the manual but it wasn't in 
there.  That link was what I needed, much appreciated!

20.1"W x 10.5"D x 5.25"H

Which means that SKB case won't work :(

I have to say that there is an excellent low-cost solution to this 
problem.  I prefer my XL7 with the end caps on, so I bought a 
horrible old yellow hard-shell suitcase from Goodwill ($7).  I cut 
some old packing foam ($0) and wedged it in.  If you cut the foam 
slightly oversized, it will stay in place without tape or adhesive.  
Place the XL7 in the case and away you go (it fits perfectly in many 
medium-sized suitcases).  This solution has the added advantage of 
theft prevention:  thieves go for the nice SKB cases and don't even 
notice the old clunky suitcase.  Sure, the SKB cases will probably 
protect your Command Station better if you toss it from a moving 
train, but I would wager that the Goodwill alternative works just as 
good in any real-world gigging situation.

If anyone really wants to spend $100 on a hardshell case, send me an 
email  with your credit card # and I'll put together one of these 
fashionable alternatives and have it shipped to you in time for 
Christmas... Throw in another $20 and I'll write XL7 on the side with 
a magic-marker for ya'.  :)
