Gator GTSA-MIX222508 - TSA Rigid Flight Case for Mixer 55.9 x 63.5 x 20.3 cm
The Gator GTSA-MIX222508 hard-shell mixer flight case is designed to provide maximum protection for mid-size mixing consoles during touring, professional rentals, fixed installations, or frequent transport. Part of Gator's TSA ATA series , it is constructed from high-strength molded polyethylene , a virtually indestructible material designed to withstand shocks, vibrations, and the rigors of professional transport, including air freight.
Inside, the case incorporates a Secure Fit system with 25 mm (1") high-density EPS foam and adjustable foam wedges , allowing you to adapt the space to different mixer models and secure the console to prevent movement. The approximate internal dimensions are 63.5 x 55.9 x 20.3 cm (length x width x height) , ideal for compact 16- to 24-channel mixing consoles and other similarly sized equipment.
Designed specifically for live sound environments, this flight case is compatible with mixers like the Behringer X32 Producer and other mixers from brands such as Presonus, Mackie, Behringer, Allen & Heath , and more, provided they fit within the internal dimensions. Thanks to the foam inserts, the equipment is securely held in place, reducing the risk of damage to potentiometers, faders, and connectors during transport.
On the exterior, the GTSA-MIX222508 features two TSA locks (one with a key lock) specifically designed for air travel: they allow security personnel to open the case without damaging it, maintaining its protection and reducing incidents at airports. The black-finished hardware , continuous perimeter flange , and impact-deflecting locking casings reinforce the case's watertight seal and mechanical resistance.
With approximate external dimensions of 72.4 x 66.0 x 26.7 cm and a weight of around 7.26 kg , the flight case remains manageable for one person. The ergonomic, injection-molded Ergo-Grip handle provides a comfortable grip even during long journeys, while the stable base ensures secure placement on stage floors, mobile racks, or van trunks. It's a robust and professional solution for anyone needing to protect their mixer from impacts, temperature changes, and constant handling.

Frequently Asked Questions
What mixing consoles fit in the Gator GTSA-MIX222508?
The main criterion is the approximate internal dimensions of 63.5 x 55.9 x 20.3 cm. Any mixing console or equipment that does not exceed these dimensions should fit, allowing some room for the foam wedges. The manufacturer indicates compatibility with mixers from brands such as Presonus, Mackie, Behringer, Allen & Heath, among others. It is always advisable to compare the equipment's dimensions with the internal dimensions before purchasing.
Does it have wheels?
No, this model does not include wheels. It is designed to be transported using its ergonomic handle. If wheels are needed, it can be mounted on a trolley, dolly, or external wheeled platform.
Is it suitable for checking into an airplane?
The ATA design and TSA locks are especially suitable for air travel. While no flight case can guarantee complete protection from damage, this model offers a very high level of protection for use as checked baggage, provided the mixer is properly secured and padded inside.
Can I use it for other types of equipment besides mixers?
Yes. As long as the equipment respects the internal dimensions and can be properly secured with the foam and wedges, the flight case can be used for other medium-sized audio devices, processors, controllers, or similar electronics.
Can the interior be reconfigured?
The interior isn't made of "pick & pluck" foam, but it does include wedges and foam blocks that can be repositioned to adjust the grip on the mixing console or equipment. This allows the case to be adapted to different models within the same size family.
Compatibility and usage recommendations
To ensure compatibility, it is recommended to measure the mixing console (including protrusions such as rear connectors, side handles, or protective covers) and compare them to the internal dimensions of the flight case. Leaving a few millimeters of clearance makes it easier to place the equipment without forcing it and allows the foam to work properly. For particularly delicate equipment, an additional layer of thin foam or protective padding can be added to critical areas such as the fader area or the screen.
