Solid State Logic Dual SiX Rack Mount Kit for Two SiX Mixers

Solid State Logic Dual SiX Rack Mount Kit: Rack Two SiX Mixers as One

The Solid State Logic Dual SiX Rack Mount Kit is a genuine 19-inch rack accessory that mounts two SSL SiX desktop mixers side by side in a single rack space. It supplies the steel rack-ear brackets, mounting screws, and fitting instructions needed to convert a pair of portable SiX consoles into a permanent, secured install. For a studio building a compact dual-SiX summing or monitoring rig, it removes the clutter of loose desktop units and locks both mixers into a professional rack frame. Every SiX front-panel control stays fully accessible after mounting, so the workflow never changes. It is the clean, road-ready way to integrate two SiX mixers into a rack.

Mounts Two SiX Mixers in a Standard 19-Inch Rack

The kit brackets a pair of SSL SiX mixers together so they occupy one continuous 19-inch rack opening rather than sitting loose on a desk. A 19-inch rack is the universal mounting standard for studio and touring gear, using rails spaced 19 inches apart so equipment stacks securely and cables route cleanly behind it. By fixing both SiX units at a set height and angle, the kit gives an engineer a stable, repeatable work surface for the two mixers' knobs and faders. This is exactly what a busy control room needs when two SiX consoles are used together for summing, monitoring, or expanded channel count.

Steel Rack-Ear Brackets and Hardware

Included in the kit are left and right steel rack-ear brackets plus the mounting screws and hardware required to fit both SiX mixers. Rack ears are the flanged metal brackets that bolt to the sides of a device and then screw into the rack rails, transferring the unit's weight to the frame. Because these brackets are formed from solid steel and matched to the SiX chassis, the two mixers are held rigidly with no flex or rattle during use or transport. That mechanical solidity is what separates a purpose-built SSL kit from a generic shelf or improvised mount.

Keeps SiX Controls Fully Accessible

Once the two SiX mixers are rack-mounted, the kit leaves every front-panel control, channel fader, and connector reachable exactly as on the desktop. The SiX is SSL's smallest analog mixer, packing SuperAnalogue mic preamps, a channel compressor, and a stereo bus compressor into a portable format, so continuous hands-on access matters. Mounting the pair at a fixed height actually improves ergonomics for a seated engineer working both consoles at once. Nothing about the SiX's routing or I/O is blocked, so the mixers perform identically to their desktop configuration.

Studio, Post, and Touring Applications

The Dual SiX Rack Mount Kit suits studios, post-production suites, and touring rigs that run two SiX mixers as a combined summing, monitoring, or broadcast front end. Typical uses include building a compact analog console rig in a rack room, securing both mixers for transport, and creating a fixed dual-SiX position for repeatable sessions. Because the SiX mixers keep their own I/O and controls, the rack kit is purely mechanical, adding stability without changing the audio path. For any facility standardizing on the SSL SiX, it is the definitive way to rack a pair of them together.
