What is the physical form factor of the S6000's Mainframe?

The Mainframe of the TC Electronic System 6000 (S6000) is designed in a rack-mounted form factor. This design allows the unit to be easily integrated into a professional audio setup, often alongside other similar equipment. Rack-mounted systems are standard in studios, live sound, and broadcasting, providing a compact and organized way to manage multiple audio processors in a space-saving manner.

The rack-mounted feature is significant because it ensures stability during transportation and use, as well as promotes better thermal management. Additionally, it often offers consistent and professional aesthetics suited for high-end audio environments. Other form factors, such as portable, tabletop, or wall-mounted designs, would not provide the same level of integration and design efficiency that is typical of rack-mounted equipment in professional settings.
