Nice Rack Canada | The Good Stuff

Here's a Nice Rack Canada built compact rack system comprised of the all the good stuff.

Our client wanted a guitar rig for use in a home recording situation that would be infinitely forward flexible for signal path and be useable at conversation levels using full range monitoring and no traditional guitar amplification hardware.

The signal flow for the system is; Guitar --> RJM Music Mini Effects Gizmo --> Send 1 --> TC Electronic PolyTune 2, Send 2 --> Re-Amping Track in MOTU 828, Send 3 & 4 --> Eventide H9 --> Fractal Audio Axe FX II XL+ In 1 --> Axe FX II XL+ Out 2 --> Strymon Mobius --> Strymon TimeLine --> BigSky --> Axe FX II XL+ In 2 --> Axe FX II XL+ Out 1 XLR --> MOTU 828 Interface & Full Mix Monitors + Axe FX II XL+ Out TS --> "Guitar" Monitors.

The system is controlled by the RJM Music MasterMind GT-22 with a Boss FV30L modified for expression pedal use & 4x External Switches built by Nice Rack Canada.

Looping is also a key component of the user's playing style. By combining the MIDI functionality of the MasterMind GT with the Axe FX II XL+, Eventide H9 & Strymon TimeLine and the signal path reconfigurability of the Axe FX the user can have 3 separate loopers in use at different points in the signal path.

The Yamaha G50 MIDI Guitar Interface is mapped to Soft Synths in the DAW.

Effects pedals powered by Voodoo Lab Pedal Power Digital.
Every system Nice Rack Canada builds is as unique as it's user, what is your Nice Rack Canada system going to be?

What a super clean wiring job. Who made the super cool patch /interface that's in the bottom 2 spaces ?
And WOW - is that an original Motu 828 ? And the YAmaha G50 13 pin to midi controller - haven't seen one of those In forever.
 
Thanks for the kind words about our efforts.

We made the I/O Panel.

It is a FW400 Motu 828 <-- Old School!

The Yamaha G50 is used in parallel with the pictured system as controller interface for Soft Synths in the owner's DAW. I too thought "wow, haven't seen one of those in at least a decade". I did ask the client when the MOTU MIDI Time Piece & Akai MIDI PatchBay were arriving...
