Making A Stage Monitor Cover

[jacm81]

I'm going to attempt to make a case/cover for my Behringer F1320D floor monitor. Does anyone know where I might find a pattern for something similar? I know I'll have to make adjustments to fit my monitor, but I don't even know where to start.

Sorry, I don't know how to go about that, either. But I have covers from both Tuki and StudioSlips that I like. Even if they don't have a cover for your particular monitor, I believe either could make you something with little more than some accurate measurements. Good luck!

Yeah, that would be easiest, but the amp only cost about twice what one of those covers would. I'm sure I could make one for much cheaper. I'm just unsure of where to put the zippers and whatnot.

Actually, now that I look, Tuki makes covers for other Behringer stuff that's pretty similar to my monitor. I might just be able to copy their design from the pictures. Thanks.

It took forever and was a ton of work, but I made one. Came out pretty good.

Do you have a quilter in the family?
Could probably get some tips from them.
This was the route I was going to go.but
Instead got a commercial cover for my qsc k10.

Very nice! How did you do it (layout, material, etc.)?

First off, the cover you made is outstanding. Tukis don't even fit like that !!
I needed covers for 6 Yamaha Club-size wedges I built and found an effective and economic answer. I went to the local Grocery Outlet (who carry all sorts of things) and bought 3 child size sleeping bags at $9 each. I then had a shop cut them in half and stitch them on 3 sides forming a padded bag. Total investment for the 6 covers was around $75.

Here's an "explanation" of how I did it from my newsletter. Sorry that it's not all that informative. http://www.jessemeade.com/blog/?p=492
