Proaim Soundchief Overview

The Proaim Soundchief Cart | Vertical Workstation has been engineered to offer sound recordists a versatile workspace that can mount stairs, roll over cables, maneuver through tight doorways, and go just about anywhere the action takes you and your gear.

The Soundchief's vertical orientation gives it a small footprint that's easy to position while taking up less space on set. Constructed from durable yet lightweight high-grade aluminum, the stand can support up to 220 pounds worth of equipment. Hinged side wings, removable panels, and a 2-pole crossbar mount for monitors work to provide a flexible yet highly mobile workspace for uncompromising sound professionals.

Vertical Workstation with a Smaller Footprint
  • The Proaim Soundchief is a highly portable cart that provides sound recordists with a strong, compact, and lightweight solution for easily moving their equipment.
  • The cart has a small footprint and could easily fit into the trunk of most vehicles.
  • Solid aluminum construction ensures stability even when loaded to the maximum payload of 220.46 lb.
Convenient Design
  • The hinged side wings, when collapsed, let you move the Cart easily through doorways.
  • When fully extended, these side wings provide an additional 24″ of workspace.
  • 4 removable side panels reduce dust penetration inside the cart and provide easy access to rackmounted components.
  • A 2.5" cable pass-through hole allows you to manage your cables easily.
  • The toolless design makes it easy to use—with an average assembly/disassembly time of 2-3 minutes.
Adjustable and Sturdy Handles
  • Two sturdy handles, one in the front and one at the back, help you to easily pull the workstation over cables, obstacles, and uneven surfaces.
  • The new and improved handle grips incorporate a hinge locking mechanism that allows you to remove or adjust the handles quickly and easily. 
Smooth and Reliable Wheel System
  • The Soundchief features reliable and lightweight 9" dovetail wheels in the front and standard 20" pneumatic wheels in the back to improve access on stairs.
  • The use of pneumatic wheels instead of the industry-standard rubber wheels ensure that the overall setup remains light, smooth, and sturdy, while the wheels are built to roll smoothly and silently, even with a heavy load.
Always in Control
  • The specially designed foot brakes of the Soundchief cart keep it completely steady, stable, and secure, for reliable parking and peace of mind, even when you can't be close to the cart.
  • The brakes are engineered to resist loosening over time, even when the tires experience some wear and tear and the thickness decreases.
Highly Customizable
  • Two vertical poles at the back hold a crossbar to mount multiple monitors.
  • Multiple mounting threads and a center mast bracket allow additional mounting options to customize the cart to your exact requirements—you can mount transceivers, receivers, boom poles, and more.
Built to Last
  • Constructed of aluminum, the cart offers outstanding build quality and is engineered to resist swaying and remain stable under heavy loads.

Proaim Soundchief Reviews

Cheap Knock off of the INOVATIV cart

By Paul
Rated 1 out of 5
Date: 2021-05-07

I have a couple of Inovativ Deploy carts, which are great, but sooo expensive. Thought I'd try this one out to save a few bucks. It looks okay at first, except it's basically crooked - we banged it back into relative alignment using a rubber mallet, and there are a bunch of knurls and messy work on this. in one spot it looks like the carpeted top got burnt. You get what you pay for.

You can certainly mount the same types of components in the rack and it may be possible to be used with some of the same accessories from the Innovativ Deploy Cart as well. It is not possible to determine compatibility without knowing which accessories you are referring to. Please contact us by phone or through live chat for further assistance.
