Pedalboard case for XL?

[rsm0]

Looking for a solid pedal case for light duty protection; a case with a low bottom / high top cover that allows use of the XL while on the case bottom.

 

I have a few from Rondo Music that work great for other floor rigs, but they're all in use, and Rondo music no longer has them in stock.

 

Not looking to pay $200+ for ATA cases which I don't need.

 

What are people using to house their XL?  Not looking for a soft case or backpack

 

Here's the Rondo case I wanted but not in stock

Take a look at the Gator shallow utility cases or some of the molded cases from SKB. The key measurement to watch is the lid depth—you want a low-profile bottom and a deeper top so you can leave the XL mounted and wired. I ended up adding a thin layer of foam to keep everything snug, and it's held up great for light-duty use.

Thank you!

 

After posting I kept looking online and eventually found this, and ordered it:

Still around twice the price of the Rondo cases, but those aren't an option it seems.

The "Thon" case is excellent, with 3 drawbacks.   

 

1. The whole thing should have been upside down (handle on the opposite side).  Instead, it's the way it is.  That means that the Helix's weight rests on just a few centimeters of the foam you see here.  As you can imagine, the foam starts getting compressed and the Helix is no longer snug, as it starts sliding down.  The solution: glue an additional block of foam, or multiple pieces, so that it supports the weight of the Helix better.  If they had put the handle on the opposite side, then that would not have been a problem.  Once you add a block of foam (packing foam from your electronics), you wind up sacrificing the little storage space.  I am still able to keep my power cable and 1/4" cable in there, if I fold it nicely.  

 

2. The feet can pop off as you are unloading your gear.  Pop them off, and re-glue them each with Gorilla glue.

 

3. The handle is solid, but very thin and painful if you want to carry your stuff on a train or bus.  Solution: wrap the handle in something.  They sell gel covers for these handles on Amazon, and they attach with Velcro.  

 

After addressing those, it's an excellent case.  I've had it for 4 years, and that's where my Helix lives.

Late in the thread, but I just bought a pedaltrain board and flight case used off of Craigslist. 

 

I use two external EPs plus an external volume control with my XL, so I actually had to go with a 32" iteration. The case alone is probably forty pounds, but I've had too many incidents with baggage throwers to want to f around with it anymore. Fortunately the case has wheels.
