Hi Terry, its a solid stand and with being over 6`, I needed the height. Not the cheapest stand around, but they are built very well and all the legs and arms fold into itself, so its self contained and I like that for a quick setup. On the bottom tier I normally have the K2600x and also a small mixer on the synth, and still solid. You puddy cats would have to be heavy weights to tip it over…lol The laptop stand is great and I have the mic boom, but don’t really use that much these days.

It is a Voicelive Rack and a Behringer X32 Rack Mixer
I was very sad about vst instruments and Dropouts.
The result >> i dont need more bad surprises i go back to the roots
Real Instruments and a nearly real Mixer.

The Mixer works independent also when my Surface sleeps:joy:
(But also there is a USB Audio Interface Card Inside 1250€ for this
32 Channel-Mixer and Audiointerface …Perfect!)
But i can use the Surface via Ethernet wire to connect the Mixer App
I only use Cantabile as the Brain and Central in Null Audio Mode
Very cool in Version 3.0 …i Love it
Cheers

Aha! The X32 is a great bit of kit, and amazing value. My band uses one for in-ear monitoring.

Fully agree.
My initial idea was also to create the dream setup with prefect keyboard and soundcard in 1 machine. But these days I only want a stable PC and lightweight portable keyboard that I can change anytime when I want to.
Modular and flexible. I can create stuff on my desktop pc, sync it to my laptop and it’s ready for stage. I can do this from many places I like.

Nicely concealed display! 
cool idea !
what kinda music do you guys play?
Here you go… nothing fancy at all, just 4 controllers and a laptop! The idea on this rig is to go anywhere and ask for 4 controllers and two stands in the rider and be ready to play- I just show up with the laptop and my audio/MIDI interface.

In this band we play mostly party/rock covers.
In my normal band we play some more fun music, but all cover songs. We are to different to create our own songs

How do you use the old midi controllers via usb?
They’ve been making MIDI to USB converters for quite some time. I still have one made by Turtle Beach. Also, many audio interfaces now have MIDI in and out. I still use my EMU Proteus keyboard I bought in the early 1990’s in one of my rehearsal rooms using the MIDI input on my audio interface.

When getting keyboards supplied to me at shows, I found that bringing a 4 port USB interface took care of any possible connection issues. Also solved the old port/naming issue which is now, thankfully, addressed by aliases in C3.
