use the search over to the right.... endless comments on this.

That's a pretty low price. I'd get it. I don't like breaking the unit down to reduce the carrying size. It would be better to get a carry bag to place the parts in if you choose to break it down. The metal bends kind of easily but the support of your laptop is sturdy and down not bend downward even while you type or have hand pressure on it.

Its hard to tell from pictures (and I know it says it) but it has removable clamps that I can pretty much attach it to anything without screwing it in right? I am going to be using this for mobile so I need to have it breakdown and affix to different places - depending on where I am going.

dont get it.

Why do you say no? Have you tried it and had bad expereinces with it? I always do a lot of research before I buy something, hence this thread. My friend and I are really handy and innovative, I might decided to build something, If I do that, I will definatly post pics. Ill keep you updated.

the breakdown is a bit misleading, and my only gripe is that if you surface mount it you'll have 4 screws (that are F'n tiny) to screw the clamp section to the back/upright brace. Then if you decide to clamp to the side of a coffin you'll again have to fix the clamp using the little screws. The cross beams and top come apart. So if you can set the clamps and forget them then the L-Stand is a good working SOLID solution. Only thing - take care the little felt foot popped off one of the clamps. I have 2 of them - one with the clamps attached and one without. I do have the Serato Hi_Rise and it is very light and packs away cleanly - but is very flimsy with my 17" laptop. I gave away my iCurve - that F'in thing was super flimsy.

I just ordered my odyssey stand for $40 through GC. I will reply with some feed back when it arrives.

The actual serato stand is good but alittle unstable depending on the type of table that you using it on. I'm going to get the odyssey stand tomorrow!!! I'll let you guys know how it is once i use it!!!!

Keep us updated. Guitar Center has it for $40...is that online or your local store had that for that price?

I use it, but I haven't used the clamps for it. I just surface mount it (the bottom pieces go under my deck cases anyway, so that's a little extra precaution I guess). It definitely is a b*tch to take apart and set up again for mobile gigs, but it makes the entire setup look so sweet. Only thing is, it feels a little flimsy, but it's actually quite sturdy. I spend a lot of time typing on my laptop on the stand and I've never had a problem. I even leave my laptop on the stand overnight, no problem. Oh, and the other thing is that it doesn't really get much height over your mixer if you elevate your gear on top of your deck cases or something like that. I have my stand on the highest setting and it's maybe a couple inches above my mixer, which shares elevated space with my decks on top of my flight cases. It's probably sturdier in a lower setting, but the lower three settings are useless to me.

And for $40, it's not a bad deal. I didn't pay $40, but that's my bad.

I checked GC on-line and cannot find that stand. Everyone else on-line its $69.

I love my L Stand..here's some pics of it in action...

Forget the stand, we need close ups of the two chicks in the background :-) a440.ac-images.myspacecdn.com

Is that a skin over the keyboard that i see, and for PC? are you holdin out on us dj720, Question...... why mark the serato records?

if you mark both control vinyls at the same place while on abs mode, its just like marking regular records, i can't look at the screen when i juggle, and besides that it looks stupid when you do it. try it out

how bout for those that have exernal drives..

i havent seen a stand yet with extra space for a drive.

sucks.

i have...... www.nutek-kreationz.com

disturbed thats a sick stand any idea on the price. and how sturdy it is?

from an email i got last month when i was looking at getting it...
still might just need the money..

its a little on the expencive end.... im hoping someone will come out with a cheeper one like it.... I know someone on this forum was designing a cheeper stand with all the things that the serato users have been asking for.. but i have not heard anymore about it!

oh i see.. but usually every record has a different mark that us djs use. that would only work for the beginning of every song. correct?

no.. you can also use it for backspinning, juggling, and a few other tricks by noticing where the sticker is when the sound thatyou want in heard.... and counting how many times it goes around.. you can backspin to that place with my accuracy quickly.

Hey, isn't this about laptop stands? I'm really trying to find the best one so I can quit using this Pizza tray stand...

LMAO my bad playa

Odyssey makes a shelf you can attach to the L Stand: www.odysseygear.com

LOL it's all good I'm just sayin - every day I use this thing I get closer to a Lil' Wayne scenario!! (Wobbly wobbly wobble DROP IT LIKE IT'S HOT)

DAMN, I was rapped!!!
I paid $69 at GC!!!!

LOL its ight i feel u tho. cuz i hate when im lookin 4 sumthin and im readin a long ass thread and then the topic suddenly changes, i feel u homey

i got that keyboard "skin" from a thread on here..and i mark the recs for tricks in abs. mode and for scratchin...

UPDATE:
With taxs and shipping which was $5.00 it came to like $48.00 and some change. I went in the store and had him order it for me because they didn't have any available in store.

Odysseygear.com wanted $99.00 for it

123dj.com wanted $69.00

So this dude I normaly go through when I get new gear hooked it up for $40.00.

I just recieved it last Friday and did a show on Saturday with it and I really enjoyed it. I brought the Coffin this time instead of the road ready cases and mounted it on top of the coffin over the mixer and it was stable and snug.
I was actually very shocked how well it worked through out the night. Very Impressed I tell ya.

I like how it comes with these little extenders that you can screw on to the two center posts to widen the stand if you have a wider laptop or coffin. I thought that was a cool little perk.

The other option that you can add with the L Stand is the tray for your Serato Box. I just ordered one after I recieved my stand. I got that for $25.00 through Guiter center as well.
Sugg retail is $49.99

Check it out!

All in All, I am very happy with my purchases.

I'm not going to sit here and bash on any other products out there because every true dj has their Preference.
In my opinion I think odyssey did a great job on this product and it suits be just fine.


Would I buy another one? YES I WOULD.

Man, I used to get some good discounts at GC. The last couple times I've been there though, nothin.

Yeah Man, I try and do business with the same cats at both stores. I found that if you continue to work with the same peeps, they have no problem hooking you up, cause in Reality your hooking them up as well. Kind of a win win situation

until your contacts one day all decide to smoke weed in the back and get caught and get fired....then it's back to google-searching for the best price...anyone know how to get VIP pricing at PSSL?

I actually found a price cheaper with some dealer on Amazon.com for my laptop stand and the people at PSSL looked it up and price matched it for 10% below advertised cost. So to answer your question... "Go diggin in the internet"

true, but i get the VIP pricing at PSSL, which is like damn close to dealer cost. which equates to me saving dolla dolla bills ya'll

Dude, I've been waiting for that little extra shelf for the Lstand, but damn $50?!? Well, I don't even think I could fit it in there since my laptop is barely above my mixer on the stand's highest setting anyway.
