Dnj Senior Member Registered: 09/21/00 Posts: 43703	What is the best Tablet holder for an X stand...... I have the mic boom on one side and want to put a tablet on the other side of my X stand... whats out there that is tough, STABLE and adjustable and also doesn't have to be removed when breaking down and can be left on the X stand just like my quik lok mic boom attachment? Secondly aside from an iPad ....what do you suggest for a 10" tablet? thanx

Dnj Senior Member Registered: 09/21/00 Posts: 43703	I've been looking this seems to be a good choice for an universal tablet holder..? http://www.quiklok.com/catalog/?p=productsMore&iProduct=548&sName=IPS13 only problem doesn't seem to be anywhere to buy one .. Opinions welcome.. Edited by Dnj (04/20/14 01:00 PM)

Dnj Senior Member Registered: 09/21/00 Posts: 43703	Do you think a 10" tablet would sit up well leaning up using the S950 included music holder,...or maybe with two rubber bands on each side to secure it...?.... Attachments

Thanx Steve......It's working out good this way on stage, & easy to set up'....it's super sturdy also,.....I still need to make some minor adjustments like lowering the LT just a few inches easily achieved by drilling another hole in the mounting pole. And for back up I still have my K&M spider stand pro & Apex Pro Kb stands.....

hammer Senior Member Registered: 01/27/08 Posts: 2397 Loc: Texas	Donny, Regarding a stand or holder for either a laptop or a tablet. Like others here I have used music stands, specialized holders, and anything else that looked efficient. I now use an iPad Air with The GigEasy Universal holder which is built for a mic stand. What I am going to do is visit a welding shop and see if that can custom fit a metal holder which can be attached to my X-stand and will allow me to position the iPad in the center of the keyboard. Hopefully it could be made of aluminum for lightness and be really easy to attach to and remove from the X-stand. So far I have not found anything like I want. Deane

Deane Deane many time in my setups I had to go to a metal shop to get just what I need custom made for my needs...here is a rough sketch of what I think your talking about using a welded L shaped holder..?

PraiseTheLord Member Registered: 08/24/04 Posts: 782 Loc: N Fort Myers, FL, USA	Deane, I have had great success with a music stand and a gooseneck connected to my iPad mount, the great benefit being I can curve the iPad in over the keyboard and thereby bring it closer. Putting a gooseneck in your design might help you too. Just a thought... _________________________ Graham, Korg Pa1000, Korg G1 Air, Countryman E6, Roland BA330, 2 x Roland CM-30, , Mackie SRM150
