The SAMRC-12U handles the gear transport needs of mobile DJs, touring bands, and sound engineers who need professional rack protection with integrated mixer space. This road case combines 12 rack units of equipment storage with a convenient 10-space slanted mixer top, eliminating the need for separate mixer stands or tables at gigs.
Built from 3/8″ plywood with steel reinforcement brackets, this case protects your amplifiers, effects processors, and wireless receivers during transport while keeping your mixer at the optimal angle for operation. The slanted top design puts controls within easy reach whether you’re standing or seated, reducing fatigue during long events.
At 67.2 pounds, the case rolls smoothly on four heavy-duty casters (two locking) and features dual spring handles for lifting when needed. Steel front rack rails with 24 included bolts secure your gear properly, while aluminum edge rails provide clean, professional aesthetics. The stackable corner design allows multiple cases to lock together securely for larger rigs.
Mobile DJs can house their entire signal chain – mixer, power amplifiers, wireless mic receivers, and effects – in one protective unit that doubles as a workspace. Bands benefit from quick setup and teardown at clubs, festivals, and private events, with rear door access for cable management without removing front-mounted gear.
The case includes all necessary rack bolts and mounting hardware. Front and top doors feature dual steel link locks for security, with removable panels for easy access during operation. Seismic Audio backs this road case with a one-year warranty and ships ready to load with your equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What equipment fits in this 12-space rack case?
This case accommodates standard 19″ rack-mount equipment including power amplifiers, wireless mic receivers, effects processors, graphic EQs, and crossovers. Each rack unit is 1.75″ tall, so you have 21″ of vertical equipment space plus the 10-space mixer top for your console. Popular combinations include 2-4 amplifiers plus wireless systems and signal processing gear.
How much weight can this case hold when fully loaded?
The case itself weighs 67.2 pounds and can safely hold an additional 100-150 pounds of rack equipment when properly distributed across all 12 spaces. The heavy-duty casters and reinforced construction handle fully loaded transport, though you’ll want help lifting when the casters aren’t sufficient for your venue’s terrain.
Will my DJ mixer fit on the slanted top section?
The 10-space mixer top accommodates most DJ mixers and small format mixing consoles up to approximately 17.5″ wide and 19″ deep. Popular models from Pioneer, Denon, Allen & Heath, and Behringer typically fit well. The slanted angle provides comfortable operation whether you’re standing or seated behind the case.
Can I stack multiple cases for larger systems?
Yes, the stackable corner design allows multiple cases to lock together securely during transport and storage. The corners interlock to prevent shifting, making this ideal for larger touring rigs or permanent installations where you need to maximize rack space while maintaining organization and protection.
What cables do I need to connect equipment in this case?
You’ll need standard rack equipment power cables and audio connections based on your specific gear. The rear door provides easy access for power distribution and audio cabling without removing front-mounted equipment. Consider a rack-mount power conditioner to simplify power distribution and protect your investment from electrical issues.
