Hello!

Before I add this as a project to my bench, would the PSU hookup and wiring harness be something conventional enough there’s a modular rack-mount design here i could map to?

Thanks, i’d definitely like to add some channel strips to my setup without needing the size and space of a full console.

I have no idea if any racking materials would be available here.
 
Hi envelope!
I went out back with my morning coffee today, and ran into a man with the loveliest Audio Development mixers and asked him about racking these, as it was on my mind too.
