I have an American audio MXR10 as a back up mixer I would like to mount this in one of my extra 19 slant cases, does anyone have any ideas, I don't want this solution to look homemade or cobbled together, here are the specs

Specifications

• 10-inch, 3-Channel with Bluetooth
• Inputs: 6 Line, 2 Phono, 1 Mic
• Balanced XLR Outputs
• 3-Band EQ with Rotary Kills (Treble, Mid, Bass)
• Master, Booth, Headphone Level & Mix Controls
• Microphone Volume Control + 2-Band EQ (Treble & Bass)
• Audio inputs: RCA
• Microphone input: ¼” Balanced
• Headphone input: ¼” Stereo
• Multi-voltage operation: AC 100V~240V 50/60Hz
• Dimensions (LxWxH): 10.25”x10”x 3.25” / 260x254x85mm
• Weight: 6.6 lbs. / 3.0 kg.
 
Trade it in for a 19 MXR? It appears they don't offer rack rails for it, so unless you have access to metal bending/shearing equipment or vendor, it'll be tough.
 
I think the 3.5" depth will be the issue with off the shelf stuff. The mixer might stick up high enough to interfere with the cover.

You can do the metal plate that Mike shows, but it ads some significant weight. I took a piece of 1"X10" board, cut to fit, painted it black, then sink screws into it from each side. I like my option better.
