Introducing the New Modular Dashboard System June 01 2023

Soundbag Dashboards Goes Modular

Introducing the next evolution of Soundbag Dashboards. We’ve taken the original concept of the Soundbag Dashboard and evolved it to be completely modular and customizable to a sound mixer’s exact setup. The new modular design allows the end user to create a completely customizable Soundbag Dashboard.

How it works

Start by choosing a Soundbag Dashboard “Rail” to fit your mixer/recorder. Each Soundbag Dashboard mixer rail is designed to fit perfectly to a specific mixer, with no modifications needed.

No messy adhesive, velcro or straps! Just like the original Soundbag Dashboard, the low profile Soundbag Dashboard Rails seamlessly attach to your mixer using existing mounting points.

Next, choose from our selection of low profile “Brackets” that fit your wireless receivers. Soundbag Dashboards has designed brackets for most of today’s top wireless receivers, including Lectrosonics, Shure, Sound Devices and more. Just like the mixer rails, every Soundbag Dashboard receiver bracket is precision machined to attach to a specific wireless receiver, using pre-existing mounting points. You can choose from single receiver brackets or dual brackets. Single brackets hold one receiver while dual brackets allow you to stack two receivers at a time. Soundbag Dashboards also has a bracket for some of the most popular Battery Distribution Systems on the market.

Now, slide the receiver brackets onto the “Rail” and position them wherever works best for you. When you’re happy with the positioning, you can lock them in place by tightening the set screws located at the bottom of the Soundbag Dashboard rail, using the provided Allen key. Brackets can slide parallel with the rail or, in a Soundbag Dashboards first, the brackets can be turned 90 degrees to the rail, so you can fit more receivers onto your Soundbag Dashboard and allow even more customization of your setup.

There you go! You’ve now created your own custom Soundbag Dashboard that is personalized to your exact kit.

Features

- All components are precision machined out of lightweight, aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum, for years of use in the most extreme conditions. There are no printed plastic parts that can warp, crack or break.

Delay with 633 models May 03 2019

We want to apologize for this unexpected delay with restocking our 633 model Soundbag Dashboards. The manufacturing company is behind and as such, it unfortunately means that we are still without stock for this particular model. We are watching the situation closely and we do want to thank our loyal customers for your patience. We have our fingers crossed that we will have them restocked before June. Thanks for your understanding.

633's are back in stock and better than ever! October 17 2018

We've improved the 633 Dashboards by making them smaller and lighter but still with the same capabilities as before! The website images are still being updated but we're once again taking and fulfilling orders. Keep an eye out for updated images coming soon! Thanks for all your continued support for Soundbag Dashboards!

633 Dashboards have a popularity boom! August 15 2018

We're sorry to have to say that we're fully out of stock of the 633 dashboards after an unexpected sales surge. Thanks to all our customers for the overwhelming support!

Some retailers like Trew Audio and Gotham Sound might still have some stock if you're in a rush. We expect to have stock back up for sale by early September. 

While you wait for the 633 Dashboards to be back in, be sure to check out all the other models we have available. :) 

Thanks for your patience and support!

Soundbag Dashboards is on vacation August 04 2017

All orders placed between now and August 15th will ship out on August 16th regardless of shipping method chosen. Thanks for your understanding!

Some models currently out of stock August 02 2017

Well it's certainly nice to be popular, but it turns out that the 633V2 model was too popular for its own good and we're currently out of stock. We expect to be fully re-stocked on all models by the end of August so please check in again at that time if you're looking for that model. 

But great news... we also have a NEW model coming out around that same time! No spoilers here but be sure to check back to see all the excitement... hopefully by September! 

And Soundbag Dashboards is taking a short vacation- orders can still be placed (for any in-stock models) but won't be shipped out until August 15th. Thanks for your support!

Dashboards are now available in Blue March 13 2015

We now have the Soundbag Dashboards available in blue. It gives the Dashboards a nice bright look and they match nicely with the interiors of some of the latest sound bags offered by Orca and K-Tek. When placing your Soundbag Dashboard order, just simply choose the blue option from the dropdown menu when prompted.

Getting Started October 26 2014

It's been an exciting first week at Soundbag Dashboards. It's gratifying to see so many sound mixers from around the world order Dashboards. I've had lots of orders going out to the U.S. Also to the U.K., Australia, Canada and even Singapore.

I'm also enjoying the feedback from customers and it's giving me ideas for future products. I'm back at the drawing board coming up with new designs. Stay tuned for some new ideas coming out in the next few weeks.

If you've ordered a Sound Bag dashboard, I'd love to see it set up in your bag.  Please send me your pics to: info@soundbagdashboards.com

 

Thanks


First Post October 18 2014

We're live ! It's been quite a year trying to make the Soundbag Dashboard a reality. It started as an idea almost two years ago and after playing around with different options, machining several prototypes and field testing them on my own productions we've finally come up with something that I think really helps production sound mixers create their ultimate customized sound bag. Be sure to come back and check out the site often as I will be introducing new models for other production audio equipment over the next several weeks.
