After downsizing/re-organizing my home studio to just the keyboards and gear that I actually used (basically removing three (3) arranger keyboards and two (2) controller keyboards), I realized that although I liked the new layout, I also never used my NUMA NC2x. I decided to move it to my rehearsal room which only contained my organ (KeyB Duo MkIII), VP770, and BK7m. This left a space in my studio which I couldn't resist filling :), so I decided to 'recommission' one of two Arrangers...but which one (Tyros II, PA1X Pro)? I ALWAYS liked the Korg better but didn't want to leave the Tyros to just die in the storeroom. With only one space, the solution was to get a two-tier stand and resurrect them both. Problem is, they're both rather heavy and bulky keyboards and that does not usually bode well for 2-tier stands. So....I did some research and came up with this beauty (available on AMAZON...what isn't? smile ). Having never been able to find a stand in the past with rock-solid stability on the upper tier, I was a little bit skeptical until it arrived and I realized it weighed at least 3 tons. I've seen pissed-off delivery drivers before but...let's just say, I'm glad this guy wasn't armed smile. I had to open the box and take it down to my studio in pieces, so as much as I ended up liking it, I must admit that it is DEFINITELY NOT for gigging. Low grades also for quick assembly. This stand is definitely meant for a stationary situation such as a studio environment. HOWEVER, if you're looking to save some space but still want 1-tier sturdiness, this is the stand for you. Oh, and did I mention, 2nd-tier height and tilt adjustment is extremely versatile.
Wow, what a long-winded way of saying I really like this stand (for studio use). At $139.95, it's a steal. Here is a link to AMAZON if you're interested.
