If you get a PoE switch, you can eliminate some of the muck in that rack. Get an 8 port so you only need 1 switch, and PoE will eliminate the power unit for the access point. That will remove 2 power adapters from your rack, the cabling, and mounting. It will clean it up a bit.
My rack looks almost similar to yours except I use it for my stage IEM setup. And for my mixer I use the Allen & Heath CQ20B. Their built in network works amazing that I no longer have the need for a separate access point. Then I have a stage split connected to it, with the other tail living in the rack for whatever venue we play at. I use a Nady PEM 4 iem system which I am not happy with at all, constant drop outs but I had three spare xvive IEM systems and those have worked great. As for taping everything down, I am the EXACT same way. All my power cords are taped down with good ol gaffers tape. The only thing I’ve really added is a Bluetooth receiver for music like you. The Bluetooth receiver on the CQ20B sucks unlike their built in network, go figure. Neat setup man, I appreciate your videos and I always love seeing other people’s setup to get ideas. Keep up the great work!
Hey one quick suggestion would be to swap out your switch for one that includes POE. They are only slightly more expensive but then you could power your Access point with your switch rather than using the big power injector that came with it. Even better....consider using a ubiquiti edge router X or the X-SFP model. That would completely replace your router and your switch as well as provide power to you AP and still have room to plug in things like your dmx controller, plus it would also give you the ability to change settings on your access point with your ipad if you ever needed to. Another thing to consider, a butterfly clip for a mic stand will hold that ubiquiti access point very easily. It just clips on to the little white bracket on the back of the access point. If you are having troubles with dropouts, just throw the access point on to the butterfly clip and extend the mic stand up above head height. :) Appreciate the video and keep it up!
They have good stuff! Nicer than Gator, and lighter than R&R and other custom case brands. Other big names can be a bit more heavy duty though. I've found my ProX stuff fantastic so far!

Check out the furman plug lock power strip. it allows you to lock the wall warts to the strip mechanically. no bungee needed.

I totally learned about POE switches RIGHT after I put this tray together too! It's definitely on the list for the next refresh.
Thanks for the video. Been looking at a ProX case.

I need to do a run through of my racks!
Can you give a list of all the equipment you use. Like speakers and subs.
The longest 'aleh-oh-oh' that you can remember?! Nuts. They'd put Mongo Santamaria before mushrooms in the bag. Consumables?! I don't know. Namastè.
Why not use PowerCon top just curious?
Can you be more specific? I don't quite understand your question
