niacin Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 This gets some pretty good reviews, wondering what the minimum distance is between the top of the lower arms and the top of the front end of the upper tier arms, angle at 20 degrees (max), thx ?

CEB Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 My stand is stock. The tiers won"t get super close but they are usable. One of us modded their"s and got the tiers really close. I can post some rig pictures of my 3 tier setup later. Quote "It doesn't have to be difficult to be cool" - Mitch Towne "A great musician can bring tears to your eyes!!!

Iconoclast Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I've been considering this Omega Pro system also. They don't give out a lot of the dimensions that you really want to know do they? The arms on the stacker are 11 inches long. If you call up the pictures of it on the Sweetwater website, they have a profile view that blows up pretty big. I actually held the edge of a piece of paper against the computer screen to make a "ruler" and made some estimations based on that. Probably get you to within an inch of accuracy. I'm finding that for most of my multi tiered setups, I want the second tier lower and farther away than most stands can adjust. For a lot of my setups I've been using just a second stand behind the first and slightly higher. The prices on the Omega pro are kinda ridiculous too. 2 tiers will get you into the $400+ range. Add a couple accessories and you can easily be dropping $700-900. Makes the Gibraltar stands suddenly look affordable. Quote You want me to start this song too slow or too fast?

MathOfInsects Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 My stand arrived yesterday, but my stackers arrive today. Stand is already holding a keyboard. I'll measure when the stackers are in place. Quote Now out! "Mind the Gap," a 24-song album of new material. www.joshweinstein.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RudyS Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Sorry, had the wrong stand. Quote Rudy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iconoclast Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 That's not the keyboard stand he's asking about. That's the 18880 stand which ironically is one of the same stands I use. He's asking about the Omega Pro stand https://www.k-m.de/en/products/keyboard-stands/keyboard-tables/18820-table-style-keyboard-stand-omega-pro-black?c=171 Quote You want me to start this song too slow or too fast?

Iconoclast Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Also, kind of a well kept secret is this: https://www.k-m.de/en/products/keyboard-stands/keyboard-tables/18823-support-arm-xl-black Basically it's a bigger rail for the bottom stacker. The stock bottom stacker is kind of shallow if a 3rd tier is added on. It wouldn't fit a lot of keyboards in depth, so they added a deeper arm to accommodate deeper keyboards. Also, and I may be wrong, it appears to have more holes drilled in it so it might be more adjustable than the stock arm? Quote You want me to start this song too slow or too fast?

CEB Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I did the same damn thing ... my stand is the 18880 with 2 sets of stackers. So disregard my post b Quote "It doesn't have to be difficult to be cool" - Mitch Towne "A great musician can bring tears to your eyes!!!

FedEx biffed the stacker shipment, so I leaned on the retailer to send out a new set overnight, with the promise that I"ll send the others back if they ever arrive. New delivery date is tomorrow. Will update with pics if it happens. Quote Now out! "Mind the Gap," a 24-song album of new material. www.joshweinstein.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EscapeRocks Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Based on the PDF Manual for installing the XL arms: The distance from top of bottom arm, to bottom of top arm is adjustable from 10.3" to 14.75", in 1/2" increments. Of course if you angle that 2nd tier, the front of the keys will come closer. Quote David Gig Rig:Depends on the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
