The Orca OR-280 Audio Mixer Bag is a compact bag made for the MixPre series of mixers and any mixer of similar size. It specifically accommodates the Mix-Pre 10 when fitted with the MX-L battery mount, so you can carry that configuration safely and conveniently.
The OR-280 targets sound recordists and camera operators who need a compact, purpose-built bag for small mixers. Because it fits MixPre series mixers and similar-sized units, you can use it for a range of mixers without guessing whether the gear will fit. In particular, it supports the Mix-Pre 10 with the MX-L battery mount.
The bag opens from all directions, which gives you maximum access to the mixer and cables. This multi-directional access helps the operator arrange and retrieve equipment quickly during setups and on shoots. Additionally, the OR-280 includes a large front pocket for storing accessories that you want close at hand.
For clear visual checks, the bag’s top panel is made from a transparent material. This top window provides visibility of the equipment and adds protection from the environment while you work.
Inside, the OR-280 uses internal sponges and an internal honeycomb frame to create 360-degree protection around the gear. These internal elements cushion the mixer and reduce movement inside the bag. Bright blue brushed polyester lines the interior so you can spot cables and small items quickly against a high-contrast background.
The bag includes two hook-and-loop straps to secure the mixer in place and Orca Lifts for mixer height fitness, helping to position the unit correctly inside the bag for both protection and access.
The OR-280 features two carrying handles and a padded shoulder strap for multiple transport options. You can also attach it to the Orca Harness to ease the load on the user during extended shoots. The front pocket stores accessories, while front hook-and-loop straps let you secure a boom pole or cable bundles externally when needed.
The bag includes a unique battery pocket with rubber straps to hold batteries securely. Overall, these carrying and storage solutions keep your mixer, power supplies, and accessories organized and ready to use.
