The kit contains two authentic Audient EVO 16 rack ears and mounting bolts, which are designed specifically to fit the unit perfectly. By mounting the EVO 16 in a rack using this kit, you can save valuable desk space and ensure your unit is secure and stable in a professional studio setup.
This not only creates a more organized and streamlined workspace but also protects the investment in the Audient EVO 16 unit by preventing any accidental damage or falls.
Installation
To install the rack ears onto your Audient EVO 16, follow these simple steps.
First, grab a 3mm Allen key (not included) and remove the two screws located on either side near the front of the unit. Take one of the rack ears and position it so that the four screw holes align with the four holes on the side of the EVO 16. For accurate positioning, refer to the last image provided above. Insert four M4 screws into the holes and tighten them firmly. Repeat the process for the other rack ear.
To complete the installation, you'll need to remove the rubber feet located on the bottom of the EVO 16 using a Pozidriv screwdriver. Once removed, you can now slide the unit into a rack, securing it with the newly installed rack ears.
Note: It is strongly recommend avoiding running the unit in a rack that is located above or below hot units, such as valve outboard or multichannel AD/DA converters, without sufficient ventilation space around the unit.
