Bag for the Xone:DX
Posted on: 22.07.2010 by Kecia Wnukowski
I was looking for a bag/case for the Xone: Dx as there was none previewed specifically (A&H what were you believeing? Expecting people to carry the unit around in the original cardboard case? Great marketing for a supposed "carryable" unit....).

After a bit of research and following Mixarchitekt's advice and Phil's review of their product I finally grabbed the Mono DJ EFX365 from Mono cases. I got lucky to find one new on ebay with a 60€ discount.

Here's the official link:

Here's the review from Dj ranking s:

And here's a picture of the beast with the DX and a 17" laptop (and cables, headphones, etc, etc...).
I guess this bag could also be a good alternative for the next to come "Traktor system" (and apc40 and all the other large controllers).

I spoke to Zach about this and didn't believe the DX would fit in the bag. Before ordering it and being disappointed, maybe send him an e-mail (orders at djranking s.com) and as him to fit the DX in one.

The gaming console from Everki looks promising. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-958-_-Product

I ordered a Mono 365 the other day. Lugging the thing on a plane this week so at least it'll be well protected although it was serious cash for a bag imo!

I really want a hard case for mine. I want to keep it in the case while I dj. A bag would be of no use to me. I did read somewhere that the idj2 case fits with very slight mods but with it being discontinued its proving more difficult to get one. Although saying that I would much prefer a purpose built one for the DX.

i believe that the only magma bag who possible fit is the turntable bag

On this link you can find a flightcase: http://www.flightcasewarehouse.co.uk...p?id=2685-6557

What would be nice would be to find here what are the bags that actually do fit the Dx and not some random searches or guesses.

I will email ahead, once I actually buy a new midi controller. Im still doing research before buying anything, ie controller, bag & accessories. I wanted to buy the DX, but that got halted till I see what's up with the new Traktor controller that might be the ticket for me. But yeah I know disappoints, I must have brought varies with different bags over the past 4 years some are perfect in one aspect, but not in others. What I believe it might come down to is either using a huge backpack (which I have 2) or getting an XL Timbuk2 Messenger Bag, so I can the extras like a SLR camera, cables, X1, headphones and backup cds.

Somebody has to come out with a bag that doesnt shout, "Hey look at me, there's at least 3-5K worth of gear in here, please steal me!"

Yeah I had a look at it, it has a built in trolley handle but I didn't see the internal dimensions so I passed (and considering the picture I doubted the dx could fit)

Also whatever the bag, believe that the Dx + a laptop + the weight of the bag itself + is probably going around 10 kilos so toughness, method(s) of carrying is going to be prime criterias (and you don't want to damage a 1000$ controller).



Note: is it me or the price of the efx365 has risen since last week on their site????

I belive this could work as well for the DX and I belive it offers more of a hard case kind of protection as opposed to just a heavy padded bag:

What other bags can be used for the dx? I'm not diggin the mono bag or the controller bags from UDG...
Corine Kasman
23.07.2010
Yep, that's the same case I use for mine, a Mono 365. Built like a brick shit house and could just outlast the controller (well, maybe...).
