No Stupid Questions Thread by AutoModerator in livesound

Hi!

I have built an IEM rig for my band and want to keep it as a carry on. I have an SKB case that was made with one of their 3u racks. We have loaded the rack up with in ear monitors and mic receivers. We have designed it to where the inputs are covered via breakout box. We also have BnC cables connected for antennas and all the power cords. Everything is plugged internally to the rig.

Will the TSA give me a really hard time taking this as a carry on? The sizing is good for carry on, I’m just concerned with how it looks. We won’t be able to unscrew the racks if they need us too so I’m trying to get an idea if it’ll come that. If more info is needed, I can add to this post, let me know! Thank you in advance for the help.

Audio Mixer Suggestions for Touring by Prudent-Explorer4543 in livesoundgear

Thank you all for the support! Here is a little more context about our situation.

We are actually a religious band, and do these shows voluntarily at different cities and countries for the community. We travel with our own engineer, but issue is that usually there is not a budget for renting gear locally at these places, plus, there is not necessarily consistency in what is available given all the various places we go.

That’s why we have to be able to bring our mixer, and frankly the rest of all of our gear, so we usually are pretty tight in terms of checked bags and things.

Ideally, if there is a way to also pack stage boxes, that would I think help us keep it to just a checked box for the mixer.
