Rack mount for LittleMark II

[Mobay45]

Has anyone ever been able to get a set of rack mount ears for a LM II?

I would really like to put some on mine. I have a nice rack case that I'm removing a Genz Benz GBE 400 from to sell and I would like to put my LM II in it.

I called GC after I posted this and they said they could order some and ship them to me. That's what I did and they should be here in about 2 weeks.

forum member saxnbass hooked me up, he lives in Italy, so they were easy for him to get.

I do believe he is living in England now, going to school at Leeds..

How much did the ears cost?

I had to go look at my credit card activity statement to see. $34.62 shipped to my door. I just told them to send them to me, gave the guy my cc# and hung up the phone.

Thanks. How are you making out with your LMII?

I seem to just keep everything at 12 o'clock except the vle & vpf which I just turn all the way off.

Any funky sound settings that you have toy'd around with?

you keep the magic knobs off???

Oh, man, you need to experiment with the vle and vpf

I set mine up the same. Sometimes add a little boost with the vle.

I was under the impression that the VLE doesn't boost...it cuts highs.

Currently, there is a graphic on the Markbass home page.

He just meant, he boosted the knob a little, turned it on a little.

Thanks for the clarification...

I really like the bag I got for my LMK head....much easier to sling it over my shoulder then have a rack case.

I've got a bunch of old laptop computer bags in the garage (our company replaces the laptops every 2 years and never asks for the cases back), and they're the perfect size for the LMII, power, instrument and speaker cables, a Boss TU2, strap, cheatsheets and a mic.

I can see the need to rack mount a LMII if you have a bunch of other rack mount equipment, but if you're running the LMII with a few pedals, a bag is as good as anything.

Mine's in a Gator mixer bag right now that fits it just about perfectly. I just have the rack case that's about to be vacated and, since I'm not playing right now, I would feel better if it was stored in a hard shell case rather than the soft bag.
