I like that setup. I keep my keyboards tight like yours. I hate space between registers. That may be because I am short. I am going to look into that stand.
I’ll take some photos about how I cut down the 2nd Tier (KSA7500) and post them here. I also cut down the laptop holder so I could use a quick release and not have it 5 inches higher.
I bought the stand. And I can see that you can lower the second tier with some modification.
Here’s a photo of the just the lower “manual” on the stand with the cut down 2nd Tier units attached:
I used a mallet to knock the “gears” off after removing the threaded rod/knob:
They are just pressure fitted. Tap it on one side a few times - then the other - it will pop off.
Here is are all the parts separated:
I wrapped masking tape around the upright tube where I wanted to cut it to make sure my hacksaw cut was square. I also cut the back extension of the horizontal round tube so when I put the mike attachment on it would be right up against the back of the upper keyboard. The laptop holder is screwed onto the mike holder.
I used a friend’s drill press to drill the new holes you see where the threaded rod/knob goes through.
One last comment - unfortunately the gears don’t position the horizontal tube at a 90 degree angle to the upright. I chose the slight angle from back upwards to front. I’m thinking about putting a piece of hard rubber between them and tightening it at 90 degreees.

Is the bottom tier the KS7150? That is what I got.
Yes - that is the main stand - in the back there are two square tube openings that the KSA7500 On-Stage Stands Universal 2nd Tier mounts into. Then the KSA7575+ universal mic attachment mounts into the left 2nd Tier mount. FInally the MSA500 laptop plate screws onto the KSA7575+
I’m very happy with how stable it is - also the keyboards are at the right height.
I’ve got to say these Axiom 61 1st Gen’s are really good for Hammond - not that bad for piano either.
I did the fix today so the second tier is level.
Step 1 - Buy InstaMorph moldable plastic 6 oz
Step 2 - Take apart the gear “hinge”
Step 3 - Boil small pot of water to 160 degrees
Step 4 - Place about 3/4 tablespoon of the pellets in water and wait 2 minutes
Step 5 - Take plastic out of water and kneed into round strip about 1/4 inch diameter
Step 6 - Lay strip in circle on gear
Step 7 - Screw the other gear on until you press some plastic material outward
Step 8 - Let plastic harden for a few minutes

I clamped the two posts which kept the horizontal pipe at exactly 90 degrees

One last post - sorry for all the detail.
Here is a great little mouse pad for this setup:
I got it on Amazon:

Sweet! I may get one of those.
Check out Halion 3 it is a workstation made by Steinberg .
Enjoyed looking through the rigs here. I’m interested to know what software people are using to create the layout diagrams in the first few posts on this thread?
I think I used Vizio. I use it a lot at work. UML and such.
I build another keyboard. This was a just-4-fun project with parts I had lying around. Inside the housing is an Intel NUC i3 with 7" touchscreen, a powerbank and loudspeakers as well as the amp with 2x50W. It has a FATAR TP/100 inside which I cutted down to 60 keys. The power is enough for about 2h I assume. Not sure what I do with this keyboard 
But it was a great proof of concept…

Abselutely nice! 
Which diodematrix-electronics thing and pitch/mod wheel do you use?
Very nice Christian 
My old Setup with two Keys was to much, to heavy…
my new Key that can do all I need… my new Genos!
My VoiceliveRack I have at home on my Key for better Ergonomic…
also the two PC-monitors only at home to built Light and Soundscenes…
Sound: Genos, Voicelive Rack, X32 Rack
Light: Dmxis,PixLite 16 MkII Long Range Control Board
Software: Cantabile (as Brain), ELM (Pixelmapping), Lightjams (Dmx/Led)
IPad Mini with Songbook+ App for scrolling Text
Surface Pro 3
Monitorspeaker : iLoud mini 
Ledbars Selfmade with 5V Pixelstripes…powerd from Inside of my Lightrack
The registration Buttons call my Songstates and so I can change all Lightscenes perfect in Time with my Song… each state can have its own Lightconfiguration… so cantabile is my LightJockey controlling Lightjams
Songs I can call from Songbook App also from Genos Songbook (and at Home also from Cantabile)…my SurfacePro is always inside the Rack…
Great feature is the Display you can Assign with User Functions and Rename!! …so I use Channels I never need like SongChannels and then I have linked it with Cantabile to other Devices…
Here I can set the Mic-Volume, Harmony-Level, Reverb-Delay-Master (from Voicelive Rack) for each State in Cantabile (Linked to Racksliders)
Perfect for me! 
…I have much fun now …all devices working like expected…

I like the idea of the light strips. May need to look into some of those.
!
The lower Rack is my ‘Lightrack’ connected with USB for Dmxis…
and Artnet/Sacn for LED and also Dmx-Devices…
the Merger allows to work with both interfaces at the same time and I have also 4 different Dmx outputs …
As a result, I am not forced to switch all DMX-devices in line…
also it is galvanic isolated on all outputs
the lower connectors are for my led-Stripes
for longer cables I use 3Pin XLR (+,-,Data)… and the short Kabels with 5Pin XLR (+,-, Data to, Data from) …in loop to the next Cable.
because I had problems with flickering lights…
another big problem was the diameter of the cabels because the LED’s work with 5V ( 24 V would be better and less problematic)
but I only could have 5V stripes with 60 Led’s/m…
So my cable is 2x2,5mm2 …(much Fun to solder on the small Stripe)

Extremely nice Juergen ! Very clean setup.
Thanks!
Normaly my VoiceliveRack ist at home in the upper Rack but to work in Presets it is mutch better to have it directly in front of me…
so there is a hole in the Upper Rack on the picture.
…but it was a long way with try and error to find the best working devices for my music…
but this sounds great for all kinds of sounds I need.
Cheers Jürgen
