Solid State Logic (SSL) UF8 Rack Mount Kit for Center Section
Crafted from heavy-duty, powder-coated steel, this rack kit provides a secure and stable housing for your valuable controller, protecting it from movement and potential damage. Unlike generic rack shelves, this kit offers a precision fit that guarantees proper ventilation and access to all rear-panel connections. By moving your UF8 from the desktop into your rack, you not only achieve a cleaner, more organized setup but also free up critical surface area for keyboards, notes, or other essential tools. This kit is the definitive solution for studio owners and engineers seeking a polished, console-like integration for their SSL workflow.

Why SSL UF8 Rack Kit Is Better
While a generic 19" rack shelf might seem like a viable alternative, it falls short in every critical aspect compared to the official SSL UF8 Rack Kit. Generic shelves lack the precision fit, often leaving gaps that allow the controller to shift or vibrate. More importantly, they offer no ergonomic angling, forcing you to look down at a flat surface, which can cause neck and back strain. The official SSL kit is custom-moulded for the UF8 chassis, providing a secure, stable mount at a scientifically determined angle for optimal workflow and comfort. It's the difference between a temporary workaround and a professional, permanent studio integration.
