On-Stage KS7350 Pro Heavy-Duty Folding-Z Keyboard Stand

Product Information

Most keyboard stand options out there will state it’s load capacity. All you have to do is match that with the weight of your keyboard and you’ll be fine. As usual, it’s safe to give yourself some room here. By that I mean that you should get a stand that can hold more weight than you think you might need. Where Will You Be Using Your Stand? These are the most common styles of keyboard stands. However, there are more types which are mostly different versions of the above only e.g. double X-style. In addition to the shape there is another category that distinguishes these stands which is tiers. All of the above are essentially single tier but there are double and triple tier stands as well that can keep two and three keyboards respectively. These are good for those who want more than one keyboard in front of them simultaneously. Do these require assembly? This means you can hold just about any keyboard with ease. That being said, numerous people have pointed out that no matter what adjustment position the stand is in, it’s too wide for a 49 key keyboard. I’m sure you can find a shelf of some sort to make things work, but it’s worth pointing out nonetheless. This type of stand has an A frame underneath that usually can be adjusted to provide a height suitable for both standing and sitting positions. These are considered a lot more stable and lighter as A-frames are designed to provide extra support without being too overweight. These are relatively less common as compared with other types but can make a good choice for either small or heavy duty keyboards. Custom Stands

Single X-type keyboard stands are more affordable and better suited for stationary use at home or in the studio. The price point and ease of use are the only reasons why I’d suggest a single x design. That being said, they are made for one job and they certainly can do that job well enough.

The height is adjustable for virtually all of the keyboard stands but the range varies from one to another. You have to ensure that the stand you are buying is commensurate with your height i.e. you should be able to play them standing and sitting. As for weight, the weight of the stand itself should be less because a heavy stand can be difficult to carry or assemble. Its own weight does not really have any effect on its stability and durability. Heavy Duty

The only difference between an X-style and a double X-style is that the latter has two tubes or rods on either side. You can consider it as two X-style legs kept parallel to each other. They are essentially the same in terms of size. The difference that these extra tubes make is that the double x-style is a bit more stable and can withstand a lot more weight of the keyboard. When assembling this guide, we ruled out stands made as accessories for individual models of keyboard, like ones intended for use with a specific piano from big manufacturers like Yamaha and Kawai. Instead, we focused on general, multi-purpose stands designed to support any common-or-garden keyboard or synth from project studio to stage. Outstanding advice If you play sitting down, you may want to consider a table or Z-style stand over an X configuration, as X-style stands, particularly double-braced versions, can inhibit knee room when playing seated, especially if you’re of basketball-player proportions. What are you using your keyboard stand for?

Portability is important if you are a musician who often travels with the keyboard. For example, suppose you have to carry the stand around often for performances, jams, or practices. In that case, you should choose a lightweight stand that is easy to assemble and disassemble and preferably portable enough to carry around in a case. Stability The size of the stand and the size of your keyboards are crucial elements when choosing a stand. You should be sure that the tier width of the stand matches your keyboard’s width. Z-Style: This is yet another common style that is loved by many. The Z-shaped structure is very easy to fold and carry so those who like their stands to be portable prefer this. Also, it is kind of like a table so still very stable. It can be adjusted for both width and height so you can virtually fit all kinds of keyboards. A-Frame: The A-frame in stands is known for its light weight and high stability. These stands have A frames on the sides and again resemble a table. This gives you a lot of leg room so such a stand is ideal for those who play piano or keyboard while seated. A lot sturdier than X-style, they are becoming very popular nowadays. First and foremost, we are musicians, and we want other players to find the right product for them. So we take into careful consideration everything from budget to feature set, ease of use and durability to come up with a list of what we can safely say are the best keyboard stands on the market right now.
