Mats Olsson. Posted January 9, 2001 Share Posted January 9, 2001 Now I've had it! Perhaps any one of you clever guys/girls know of any 3rd-party dust-cover manufacturer? For the Nth time I have purchased a delicate & expensive piece of equipment. Not even a simple dustcover was included in the package and it is not available as an accessory. I find this VERY annoying, especially when doing on-location-recordings. Come to think of it, I also need a bunch of dust-covers for guitar-amps & keyboards etc. Best regards, Mats http://www.lexam.net/peter/carnut/man.gif What do we want? Procrastination! When do we want it? Later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miroslav Posted January 9, 2001 Share Posted January 9, 2001 Home Depot or your favorite local hardware store. The Paint Department Plastic drop cloths in various thicknesses and very cheap. Use them to cover piles of equipment or cut 'em up to size. When they rip, get more. miroslav - miroslavmusic.com "Just because it happened to you, it doesn't mean it's important."

Lee Flier Posted January 9, 2001 Share Posted January 9, 2001 Try http://www.studiocovers.com . They're a small business and have wonderful service. I got a cover for my Yamaha AW4416 from them and it's great. I'll be doing more business with them! I believe they do custom work too. --Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stranger Posted January 9, 2001 Share Posted January 9, 2001 I go to Wal-Mart and get a roll of "Manco- Crystal Clear Sheeting" 4 mils thick. It is usually near the hardware. This is the best time of the year to get it, because people use it for their windows to keep out the drafts. Just get some of that stuff and a roll of clear box tape. Measure the equipment and cut the stuff using the clear box tape to join the seams. Think about how a box looks when you open it up and spread it out flat and you'll get the idea. I've made a whole mess of these covers and not only do they work great, they stand up to a lot of use and abuse (the 4 mils can take it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donriversound.com Posted January 12, 2001 Share Posted January 12, 2001 Our firm does a lot of outdoor community PA events. Unfortnately, rain and snow are a part of our performance life. I always carry a box of black plastic thirty gallon trash bags, to waterproof our gear while the weatherman wins. for speakers, they completely cover them, and, with gaffers tape, you can drape them over bigger mixing boards. One size fits all! It's cheap, effective, easy to pack, and always available. Probably not quite the elegance you're seeking, but, it works very well!
