Carry case for Ketron Audya - 01/14/10 09:24 AM

Got an Audya inbound, I need a case. Any recommendations? Soft? Hard? Model?

Audya:

Dimensions (WxDxH)
45 x 17 x 6" (114 x 43 x 15cm)

Weight
38 lbs (18.5kg)

Ketron has a semi-hard case for $150. Odd, they don't give the weight!

For that weight, I can't recommend a certain brand but I would look for a very well padded w/wheels softcase. The Ketron black cases aren't that practical.

Dimension wise this is the PERFECT case
even though its for a 61 note, it fits like a glove as the AUDYA length is short due to placement of pitch bend,

not sure if it's enough protection for you

it is also VERY LIGHT

I highly recommend the Ketron cases. I've used the SD1 case for my SD1 and SD5... perfect fit, light-weight, and protective. Since the Audya is slightly larger, I'll be purchasing the Ketron Audya case also. Good luck.

Thanks for replies. One of those padded bags had bad reviews. The Ketron semi-hard case is what I am leaning toward. As long as you didn't treat it rough, it would probably give more protection than a soft case and it only weighs 18 lbs, so, not much more than a padded soft case. It wouldn't hold up like a hard case would but those are about $300, more than I want to spend for a case. Plus, they are really heavy.
