Legend!
Ugh. Last night I got to sit in with some friends and took the FM3+FC6. They called up another friend to sing, who then spent the next 30 minutes stomping around the stage right next to the FM3. By the end he'd stepped on the guitar cord at the input, unplugging it mid-song, then stepped on the FASLink breaking the XLR connector and I was about to push him off the stage. I was afraid he'd broken the socket itself inside the FM3, but the FC6 powered right up when I used a different XLR cable.
Now I'm totally rethinking my light-weight travel FM3+FC6 rig and am going to armor it. I'm looking at the Temple Audio Duo 24 so I can fit the units side-by-side, but would really like to find something that could protect all the connections on the back of the unit. I know I can run everything to the modules on the side, but the connections themselves on the back are still exposed.
I looked at the Nux Bumblebee (Large) but it doesn't look like there'd be enough room to put one of the bars across the back and it's not wide enough for both units.
I was thinking of asking if Temple Audio would sell a bunch of their handles that I could mount across the back, but I wondered if anyone else had thoughts about it. Has anyone got a way of putting a bar over the back area to deflect stomping feet? Maybe a chrome towel rack from Home Depot?
