Don’t worry. Your beloved modules are under heavy guard.

Modular gear is a precious commodity, and you need a versatile housing and security system to accommodate them. A first glance, you’ll see that this is a perfectly fitted 3U, 88 HP case made of a light but strong aluminum chassis, fitted with wood side panels. Deceptively simple, RackBrute is far more than a simple box. It includes many smart additions, such as the included +12V / -12V / +5V power supply that ensures that keeps everything up and running, and the multi-position handle system that not only lets you carry your collection with ease, but also lets you deploy an optimal operating angle, whatever your preference.

The best way to recognize a specialist is through the quality of their equipment.

Ready for anything

Secure an unobstructed viewpoint over the theatre of operation, and hold the position ‘til further orders.

In addition to keeping your modules safe and secure, RackBrute 3U gives you total control of the situation, no matter the context. The first of its secret weapons is the Link fastening system. Paired with the included handle, it will let you choose one of several configurations and orientations for your modular arsenal. Whether you want your gear stealthy and prone, or standing to attention, RackBrute is at your command.

The second trick up its sleeve is the stalwart, ever-reliable, power supply module. Including two independent circuits to supply common modular voltages, it will more than cover your need for +12V, -12V and +5V, providing up to 1600mA in total.

Thirdly, its robust power rail includes a sophisticated noise-filtering technology, and provides 20 standard slots to leave plenty of space for your collection.

Once you’re powered, in position, and locked down, you’ll feel like your modular rig could withstand a siege.

Joining forces with allies

Always remember the Modular Republic’s motto: Unity is strength

The Link fastening system not only equips the RackBrute 3U, but also its large-calibre sibling, RackBrute 6U as well the MiniBrute 2 and MiniBrute 2S. No matter the combination you go for, you can make the most out of your extensive module collection, or create a powerful EcoSystem with the extensive CV/Gate connectivity of the MiniBrute 2 and 2S.

It’s also worth noting that although this technology comes straight from the top secret Arturia research labs, they are working for the greater good. The Link system is patent-free, so you can expect more and more Link-enhanced equipment to become available in the near future.

Do not wait for reinforcements, bring them yourself.
