Modular 1U Rack Mount: Shure BLX4 Wireless System

Reclaim your rack space and secure your wireless audio gear with the Modular 19" 1U Rack Mount! This innovative 3D printable mounting system is designed for audio engineers, DJs, and creators who value clean cable management, structural stability, and sleek rig aesthetics.

Why You'll Love the Modular BLX4 Rack Mount:

• Smart Modular Architecture: Separated into dedicated left and right versions per plate, this model easily fits standard build plates while retaining massive structural rigidity once assembled.
• Heavy Friction-Fit Dovetails: Utilize the integrated dovetail connectors on the center seam for a rock-solid, flush center assembly. The tolerance is purposely engineered tight to ensure the plates never rattle, shake loose, or sag in heavy mobile use cases or road racks.
• Integrated Labeling Surface: Features flat center blocks designed specifically for color-coding tape, console tape, or label maker stickers. Easily map your physical microphones to your receiver channels instantly in fast-paced live environments.
• Perfect Flush Fit: Molded precisely around the front profile of the Shure BLX4 chassis to ensure a professional, factory-installed look without any front-face hardware clutter.
• Full Accessibility: Keeps the front-panel power button, channel/group selectors, and RF/Audio LEDs completely visible and unobstructed.
• Optimized for Standard 19" Racks: Built strictly to standard 1U dimensions, allowing seamless integration alongside power conditioners, drawers, and other rack gear.

Assembly & Print Notes:

Assembly is straightforward: slide your Shure BLX4 units into the custom form-forming slots. When joining the left and right plates via the built-in dovetail connectors, note that the fit is intentionally tight to eliminate play. Applying steady, constant pressure with a standard bar clamp makes snapping the halves together a breeze. Once joined, secure the complete assembly directly into your standard 19-inch equipment rack or road case using standard rack screws.

Recommended Print Settings:

• Material: PETG is the bare minimum requirement. For true road durability and impact resistance, engineering filaments like Pro PCTG, ABS, or ASA are highly recommended. Audio racks can build up significant heat from nearby gear, and these materials provide the necessary thermal resistance and strength to handle everyday wear and tear without warping under rack-screw torque.
• Note: Optimized walls, 5% crosshatch infill, and orientation parameters are already configured in the provided print profile for quick plug-and-play printing.
