Do all 500 Series modules fit into all 500 Series racks?

AlanTide · 27th March 2006

No matter what the manufacturer? For example, could I put API pres, API eq's, A Design P1 modules, Purple, OSA, etc all into 1 rack unit that powers them all?

Here's a list of them all, i pretty sure most fit, except the new Buzz Audio MA1.5

I have the same question because I want to get a couple of Radial's modules, but I'm not sure if they only work with the Workhorse Chassis.

i use a radial unit in my api lunchbox.

if it is 500 format, then the manufacturer is making the unit to 500 series specs...at least for size.

Awesome! Which one(s) do you use?

i use the Radial EXTC, and i love it.

i have a BMD Komit and i'm curious how the Radial version compares.
i may end up adding a pair of the Radial version at some point if there is any improvement on the original, as i find it quite useful.
