I thought about going down that road but started adding other devices to power and decided to go the Cloks route instead. It was a tad bit more expensive but in my opinion well worth it.

Which model did you end up using and what else are you powering?

I went with the DC7! I'm powering two wireless units and a Peterson HD tuner and have plenty of power on tap if I ever need it! Click the link in my sig if you want to take a look!

My board has stayed mostly unchanged for the last six months but I decided to clean it up a little more inspired by @Jazzmaster1414's fresh setup. I broke out the single power split plus patchbay box that I had built to a pair of separate enclosures, screwed the FM9 down to the board, and finally built some custom length midi cables. This setup is rock solid now!

What's the "midi box"?

What's the "midi box"?

It’s a Chase Bliss box for controlling their pedals with midi via the 1/4” jacks in the side. I had it laying around and am repurposing it as a pass-through for sending a set of commands from the MC6 out to Ableton.

Connect a midi cable to that which goes out to a playback/click/iem rack.

chance you could share the innerds of that power patch box? Ive always done a powercon with 2 IEC cables on the terminals.

That's so clean. Very cutesy. Very demure (or have the kids already stopped using that expression ?).

I'd like to do something like this, with just enough room for FM9, my wireless and my expression pedal. But every time I try, it just ends up looking like a hastily packed suitcase.

That’s what I had done previously. This is essentially the same concept, but instead of iec cables going to the powercon terminal it’s two sets of 16 gauge 300V wire that each go out to a conxall mini connector that looks like an xlr connection.
