To solve this, I'm considering building my own small studio rack (<a href="https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/GRSTUDIO4U--gator-gr-studio-4u-4u-studio-rack">something along the lines of this</a>) as a little woodworking DIY project, but before I do so I've got a few questions for anyone who has done something similar.</p> <ul> <li><p>Is there any particular type of wood that would be appropriate for this project?</p></li> <li><p>What accommodations in construction do I need to make in the name of heat management?</p></li> <li><p>Is it necessary to have a space in between each piece of equipment (audio/midi interfaces, synthesizers, etc.)?</p></li> <li><p>What are some good brands for rack rails?</p></li> </ul> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/vacuumsaregreat"> /u/vacuumsaregreat </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/a37u9s/what_do_i_need_to_know_about_building_my_own_rack/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/a37u9s/what_do_i_need_to_know_about_building_my_own_rack/">[comments]</a></span>
