Does such product exists ?

Let me clarify what I need here. It is a stand for holding the microphone. I need something small/light and possibly attached to the stand or the keyboard itself. I saw this before if not mistaken, probably from Scott Yee pictures. Of course, there are those big boom stand that's not portable and also heavy.

If so, where can I find it and cost ?

Thanks, guys.

Quick Lock makes an attachment for most X stands, it sells for around $25..

Thanks, Fran. Yes, Quiklok QLX-4 is the model number and Kraft Music has it for that price plus shipping (around $10)

I will try Guiitar Center next, now that I know the model number.

Hello

I have been considering something like this too. Either getting a manufactured one or going to Home Depot and devising one myself.

BUT..since I have not seen one "in action", I'm wondering if it will giggle around so much as to be distracting. I am thinking it might be possible that the keboard stand will wiggle and this wiggle may really become even a much greater wiggle with the boom stand.

Does anyone have first hand experience with this boom stand that could say it works great or stay away from it?

Thanx

Scott Langholff

I also have a cheap X stand. And wonder about the Quiklok fitting ok. One more thought: what about this working loose in performance and falling over sideways with it hitting me, the keyboard, and/or the floor.

I wish they had one in a local store and then I wouldn't have to ask all these silly questions.

Thanx

Guitar Center carries it (see the model number above) and will match the web prices from kraftmusic. I just called them. Thanks to Fran for giving me the brand name. If you don't like it, just return it within 30 days. Guitar Center is great, man !!

If I understand you correctly then the ULTIMATE stand does a very nice job at that. I have one and I use it all the time. The mic stand comes off of the Bracket that holds the keyboard tears. You can find those at any music store pretty much.

Quik Lok makes 2 sizes on the mic boom attachment....28mm and 30mm depending on the size and model of the TUBING on your X Stand....make sure you get the right one.

The Quiklok is great - solid and stable. Make sure the KB stand is also solid, or the wobble will increase with the extra extention of the boom and mic weight. You also may get noise transfered to the mic from stand rattle or kb banging .... depending on how hard to play.

I use two of those attachments .. one for the mic and the other for my laptop stand. I had a custom made bracket fitted for the laptop part. It uses standard USS tubing to attach. Works SOOOO great.
