I've been avoiding pedal use as a result of this. The only way I can actually play comfortably is if I put my leg through the frame! That's fine but it takes about 10 seconds of intense exercise to get in and out of! I was thinking of buying the Roland KS-10Z but I don't think it will go low enough. I might have to buy a new chair for that. Something that can go quite low as you'd be able to do with an adjustable X shaped frame. https://www.roland.com/uk/products/ks-10z/ Something like this, but that's adjustable! https://promusica.ie/roland-kscfp10-stand-for-fp10-digital-piano Thank you

The stand I have in my signature line is great for gigging---very quick to pack and unpack, very sturdy. There is also a very good Yamaha stand: LG800.

This K&M one can go low enough "600 mm" for me. And it says it could hold a full size keyboard https://www.gear4music.ie/Keyboards...ro-Table-Style-Keyboard-Stand-Black/2ZB8 Last edited by Visalia; 06/30/22 05:00 PM.

I believe the 18820 foldable stand and 18953 stand have the same minimum height. I have the 18810 non foldable stand and it is a very pretty sturdy chunk of steel. I could see an advantage to have four legs if you are someone who plays hard. https://www.k-m.de/en/kmPdf/datasheet/ordernumber/18810-015-55 https://www.k-m.de/en/kmPdf/datasheet/ordernumber/18953-017-55 FP-90x, PX-330

After I bought mine, I had to have the 'arms' of the stand cut to be made shorter. The lowest position setting for my previous keyboard was still too high as it was a very thick keyboard. The stand folds flat which is nice for transportation. Here's a link ... Monolith Yamaha AvantGrand N1X \| Roland RD 2000 \| Sennheiser HD 598 headphones
