Front loaded patchbay?

gtrgriff3 · May 6, 2014 at 12:26 AM

Anyone know of a place I could get a patchbay that could go in the rack above my KPA (rackmount, non powered) that would provide connections to MIDI, audio, and USB from the front of the rack?

I've seen these for Axe-Fx users (though I cannot remember the website now) but many of them didn't really have what was needed for the KPA (or they had way more than was needed.)

Thanks for any suggestions... I'm not that handy with building stuff so I try to find it done already.

it'd be easy to build it from parts you can buy from eBay.. most likely you can get most of it already built.
Also Vafam Sound on eBay builds them custom for you.. and they are very affordable!! I had them build a couple of 16 slot 1 U panels for my rack.
an example..
19" 1U rack panel w 12 XLR/TRS" combo's (or get a blank and do your own..) VaFam Sound guys..

substitute a couple of connectors for midi and usb connectors..
usb panel mounts (just mount it and plug in your cables..)
