Has anyone got any software that can blow this picture up without distortion so i can clearly see that black paint finish on top?

There’s nothing like a nice rack.....and that’s nothing like a nice rack ;)

Seriously though, looks like a computer generated image so not worth studying too closely.

Not unlike a hammered finish.

i would think it is.. certainly not super smooth, but the pic quality is minimal so enlarging doesnt help a lot. cant make a silk purse out of a sows ear as they say

Thanks Grant. It's finished like that for hard wearing, but if the finish is shite i wont bother.. Ill have to try find another pick. All that will be visible is the front when its fully loaded. Im going back into Analogue synthesizers now ive got a new job, but want my file based system incorporated into it.. 19" rack mount PC monitor, Keyboard Tray & PC wil be mounted in that.

Hi Andre
Have you considered building one out of timber or ply. You can choose the height and finish to suit.
It's only a little more awkward mounting the kit, but I've just used decent screws with cushioned washers, looks smart and never had any issues.

Hi Martin
Wood is banned in this House. Its ultra modern Black, Grey, White Decor.. Maybe only Black Ash could be acceptable but id rather have Metal finishes.. Black Ash is a bit 80's Flat Earth tac :D

"Wood is banned" ouch 😯

Plenty of small steel fabricators in Sheffield, may be worth a try?

You know what hack me off with fabricators, They make the welds visible on joints. Thats why i was a fan of the 1980's Sound Organisation stuff, they were all invisible welds.. I think ive got something sorted thanks to the studio industry..
