Does the Pelican have the space for the Temple Audio and a mounted FM9 or do you carry them separately?With 3 shows behind me using the new FM9 I can say I'm really impressed with every component including the Pelican vault. My FM9 is very secure and protected and the weight isn't bad at all compared to lugging a combo amp and a case of pedals around. The Temple board is everything I could ask for, set-up is under 5 minutes and the sound is so consistent that I shake my head every time I finish a sound check.
It carries the whole shabang. I don't have a pic of the finished board in the case but it all fits wonderfully!Does the Pelican have the space for the Temple Audio and a mounted FM9 or do you carry them separately?

I have a bunch of their bags and they work really well. They're not flight cases, nor are they meant to be, they're for commuters on trains or top-loaded in the trunk of a car, for which the padding works perfectly. Studio Slips knows what they're doing, they're well respected, they've been making these for years and people use them for years because they're really well made. They're also a member of this forum.Just received a Deluxe Studio Slips bag.. if this is double-padding I'd hate to see what single padding is. It's hard to tell, but it sure doesn't seem like 5/8" worth of padding - even uncompressed, I can compress it down to probably 1-2mm. The construction seems top-shelf, but I was expecting a tighter/snugger fit. I've owned clamshells in the past for a head and cabinet, and the padding in them seemed more robust (going off memory as I don't own them any longer). It's definitely not as thick as the soft case of my Mono pedalboard.
Would absolutely not buy again at $235. I think might look start looking into hard-case options.
Pelican are the only hardshell case I'd look at. I had a really big one for all my strobes when I was doing pro-rodeo photography and a smaller one for my cameras and lenses that I'd stand on to get up the fence when it didn't have railings. They were beaten up, scratched all to heck, and had mud jammed into the corners of the latches. I'd occasionally hose them off, but they never leaked or failed.With 3 shows behind me using the new FM9 I can say I'm really impressed with every component including the Pelican vault.

@humpfrey - how heavy is the box? Can't find that info and I am wondering about what it would weight with the FM9 in it. My music room and office is in the basement, so stairs are involved. Funny how finding just the right solution for each of us is tricky.https://www.newark.com/multicomp-pro/22-24155/weatherproof-case-polymer-black/dp/83X6735

For those of us primarily concerned with weight/size, this is the Pedaltrain Metro 24 Deluxe case which can be purchased separately without the board for $80 USD on Amazon. Wish they still had the premium cases available but the Deluxe case is still quite good. Fine for local stuff and carrying on a plane. Model number is PT-M24-MX-X. Plenty of room in the outer pocket for cables, GLXD6 receiver, etc. If you use a TRS cable with right angle pancake plugs you could leave your exp pedal connected while in the bag. If you don't use an exp pedal the Gator GK-2110 is slightly smaller and only $60 USD. For a little more room the Boss Bag-L2 is $60 USD and slightly bigger than this metro 24 case.

Thanks! Try this, it's only $60 and slightly bigger than the metro 24 bag: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/BossBagL2--boss-bag-l2-large-bagHi Alex, Happy Birthday BTW!! Good info, thank you!!
I have the large FAS EV-1 pedal and that won't fit in there, although I bet it would fit in the accessory pouch.
I ordered the Metro 20 version, which according to folks here, the FM9 should fit. It doesn't. My unit is too big. I have to make it fit and wrestle it in there. Back to the drawing board.
the box is 5 kilos@humpfrey - how heavy is the box? Can't find that info and I am wondering about what it would weight with the FM9 in it. My music room and office is in the basement, so stairs are involved. Funny how finding just the right solution for each of us is tricky.
I'm currently using my Metro 24 bag for my FM9. It fits fine but I'm getting concerned as to whether its durable enough for the weight. I'm seeing signs that the stitching is begging to pull.For those of us primarily concerned with weight/size, this is the Pedaltrain Metro 24 Deluxe case which can be purchased separately without the board for $80 USD on Amazon.

That's a great looking rig. Is that the Temple Duo 34 board? My fm9 is in the mail and I'm trying to determine which case I need. That size looks perfect.

Yes it is. And the Pelican Vault V700. Works great for me.That's a great looking rig. Is that the Temple Duo 34 board? My fm9 is in the mail and I'm trying to determine which case I need. That size looks perfect. Thanks!
I bought the metro 20 bag, not backpack, and it was too tight. Couldn't wrestle the FM9 into it. I returned it and am on the hunt again.View attachment 110514
