Perfect for my mobile classical recordings
As a freelance classical recording engineer I've been in need of a small portable rig to carry a 1U interface and a 1U 8-channel preamp. Found this and it's perfect. Clamps down really tight on the computer so I'm not worried about it banging around inside. There's just enough space left over in the back for power, USB and patch cables to go between the interface/pre and computer.
There isn't much extra space in the back for other things though (such as mics, bigger cables, etc.) so you'll need to bring those in a separate bag or something. Still, this helped me cut down on separate laptop and interface bags. I find that there is a bit of wasted space on the bottom in the front and back where there are two "slots". I think I might find a way to use some foam to create comfy compartments for USB sticks and other small things I carry around.
However, here's a warning: my 15-inch 2011 MacBook Pro is slightly too big to allow the velcro laptop holders to be placed completely around the computer. I managed to put some in front and on the sides of the computer which I find is enough to hold it. Any computers that are bigger than this might pose an issue, but I suppose you could make a bit more space by removing the front holders and only using them on the sides.
Overall great, solid product. I'm not afraid that any of my gear will get damaged inside. Also, the lifetime warranty is great.
