Midas Legend L10 Patchfeld

500 Series Rack Chassis with 10 Slots and Clean Power

The Midas Legend L10 is a 10-slot 500 Series rackmount chassis designed to host any combination of compatible single-width modules from Midas, Klark Teknik, and third-party vendors. Built around a 3U 19-inch steel frame, it consolidates an entire modular signal chain into one tidy enclosure that fits a standard studio or touring rack. The Legend L10 is the right choice for engineers and producers who want to build a flexible analog front end without rewiring the rack every time the signal chain changes.

What Sets the Legend L10 Apart

Audio output link switches on the rear panel let modules pass signal from one slot to the next without patch cables, keeping the back of the rack clean and preserving signal integrity. Comp Bus Link switches allow compatible compressor modules to be linked for true stereo or multichannel sidechain operation, eliminating the need for insert cables. A front-panel ground lift switch breaks ground loops that would otherwise introduce hum into the signal path.

Power, Dimensions, and Connectivity

The chassis is engineered around a high-current, ultra-low-noise switch-mode supply that delivers stable rails to every module, even when the rack is fully loaded with current-hungry preamps.

• Module Capacity: 10 single-width 500 Series slots — fits any combination of preamps, EQs, and compressors
• Power Supply Output: 3.2 A at ±16 V and 300 mA at +48 V phantom power — drives demanding ribbon and condenser microphones
• Rack Format: 3U 19-inch rackmount — Width 448.31 mm, Height 132.40 mm (without feet), Depth 210.63 mm
• Weight: 4.9 kg — light enough for mobile rigs and fly racks
• Connectors: Neutrik XLR main and aux I/O per channel — industry-standard locking connections for studio and stage

Who Should Pick the Legend L10

This rack chassis is the right choice for project studio owners, mixing engineers, and live sound technicians who need a reliable, expandable home for a growing 500 Series collection. It suits anyone running a hybrid analog-digital workflow who wants preamp colour, EQ shaping, and bus compression within easy reach of a patchbay. Touring rigs benefit from the auto-ranging universal power supply, which accepts mains voltages worldwide without manual switching. First-time buyers stepping into the 500 Series format get a cost-effective entry point that still leaves room to grow into a full ten-module signal chain.
