Hi! So I'm working for a touring company, and we bring everything with us. We currently carry our audio mixer in a ...beat up cardboard box.
So we're looking to replace that with... A -new- cardboard box.
I'm trying to make a case for buying an actual road case (just something to add some protection to the board). I mean, common sense tells me that having a road case is a much better and safer option than using a cardboard box, BUT I need facts in order to have any leverage.
Any help in the persuasion department would be quite helpful!
A few things about our tour-
we tour around the state with a two shows that go to schools, so as far as sound equipment, they we bring the board, input, and two powered speakers.
We also tour two shows a year to theatres in the region, which we bring another board, a computer, and mics with us.
The boards we take are relatively small. The one that goes to schools is an 8-channel somethingoranother, while the other board is a 16-channel Yamaha ProMix.
