Korg Radias in rack

[coriolis1986]

Hi all.

I like a Radias synth and want to purchase it. But I prefer to use only rack version of synths and want to install Radias also into rack.

As I see from pictures, Radias will "eat" 3 units of rack space, which is ok. But this synth has connectors located at the edge side, but not in the rear. So, am I right that Radias will "eat" around 4-5U with cables connected?

thanks

if you use 90 degree plugs yeah it eats another rack space

Korg used the same scheme for the MS2000R, why they didn't correct it for the Radias is beyond me. Don't forget the power switch is on the back, too!

When I owned one I left two empty rack spaces above it.

I see that there are a lot of pseudo-rack synths that need additional empty space above. That is a very idiotic solution...

Is there maybe anything like a generic "tiltable" rack adapter that would allow rotating the unit? I mean the kind of those native rack ears that come with the V-synth XT.
