Intellijel palette 62 vs Rackbrute 3u for first case
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Just mulling over pros and cons of these cases to use to base a first build on.</p> <p>Different aesthetics... I do like the Rackbrute, but practicality & bang for buck probably outweigh that consideration and the Palette has a good clean look to it.</p> <p>The Palette is narrower and more expensive but makes up for it I think with the 1u row for utilities, and includes audio/midi connections which would take up space in the Rackbrute.</p> <p>I'm a bit torn.</p> <p>Any opinions on these - or anything you'd recommend instead? </p> <p>Edit: A couple of people have suggested much bigger cases, like the Rackbrute 6u or the Mantis. Both look great, but I really am going to start off small and don't like the idea of having a largely empty rack for say a year. If I do decide to expand and grow, then I will doubtless end up swapping modules in and out and can do the same with the case. </p> <p>Budget for case, power, midi, audio out is circa £300. I thought about the niftycase but only mono audio. </p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/D_Beep"> /u/D_Beep </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/l1dyf5/intellijel_palette_62_vs_rackbrute_3u_for_first/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/modular/comments/l1dyf5/intellijel_palette_62_vs_rackbrute_3u_for_first/">[comments]</a></span>
