jwill Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 I presently roll my 552 fully built (xlrs hirose and xlr jumpers) in a Pelican 1620, I carry a full ENG set up...3 extra xlrs 2 ecm 77s and the 416 in a rycote shock mount and softie detached a versaflex harness and 1'4'" collapsed boompole goes to 6' 9". My question is how do fellow JW Soundie roll to the job? I use the case as a platform when doimg live shots, is there anything a little smaller from Pelican tht any of you utilize? i also utilize a portabrace run bag on black the 2nd largest !

RaceSound Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 I use a 1650 with almost all of my gear, strategically placed, including 9ft boom and stand with hook. The bitch is that loaded up, it's around 80lbs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwill Posted December 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Race, I have the porta brace interior for my 1620, what is your interior? I also have the 1650 and will roll in that for corp jobs, a mini c stand, matthews knuckles, boom pole holders, sand bags, 2 boom poles andd the cables/turnarounds, splitters...its and easy 80lbs. For ENG/sports the 1620 and run bag seem to work fine. I like to leave the mixer fully dressed with pig tails, wireless boom and hirose all plugged in, so all I have to do is pull out mixer mount shockmount and 416 and build and tune wireless build the handmike!

RaceSound Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 The interior is just open, foam bottom and eggcrate top, no dividers. That PA1003 on the other thread/link is great, but expensive. Dare I say I wish I had a case that was a few inches longer... I'm not sure if I'd regret it, but I'm thinking that half the case in small dividers for all the pieces would work great, instead of having bags of stuff in the 1650.

David Settlemoir Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 I use a Storm Case iM2750 for my 442 setup. I have the pockets/pouches for inside lid. I also bought a small plastic rectangular bin at Target to hold smaller items. I also use a Plano arrow tube case for my Loon Audio boom since it will not fit in the storm case.
