PreSonus StudioLive AR12 Rack Ear Mounting Kit
The PreSonus AR12 Rack Ear Mounting Kit is a rackmount kit that installs a StudioLive AR12 mixer in a 19-inch rack or road case. The console stops sliding around on a folding table: it's bolted in, protected and ready to plug in, in the same spot at every show.
What sets it apart
- Left ear, right ear and screws supplied
- 8U ears in black steel
- Designed for one StudioLive AR12
- Once mounted, the console takes about 8.9U of rack face
How much rack space to plan
PreSonus lists the AR12 at a total length of 15.589 inches (about 396 mm), roughly 8.9 rack units once mounted. The ears themselves cover 8U, so plan for 9U of free space in your rack.
It's the answer for fixed control positions (parish hall, bar, rehearsal space) and for bands that pack everything into one case: the console travels already wired with the rest.
