Your 500 Series rig starts with the chassis
Your 500 Series rig starts with the chassis — more commonly called a 500 Series rack. Each module fits into a slot in your rack (some modules may span 2 or even 3 slots), and racks come in many configurations ranging from 2 to ten 10 slots. Some are tabletop units, and others are designed to mount in a standard 19" equipment rack. Your 500 Series rack isn’t just the housing for your modules, it’s their power supply and their primary I/O, commonly including either multichannel DB-25 connectors or discrete balanced I/O such as XLR or TRS jacks. Some 500 Series racks include complex signal routing, including internal patching, stereo linking, and even full audio summing. Whatever the format, the ultimate quality of your modules depends on the quality of your chassis.
