Desk should work out all right. Instructions take a little time to get used to. Wish the shelf for the PC was a little wider and longer, but it'll be OK. Very pleased overall.

Ok, so about 2 months ago, i got sick of buffering drivers, software crashes and plug-in problems and decided to switch to outboard equipment. Which turned my pool table outside of the studio into a workstation. Which was terrible! I couldn't come up with a solution to consolidate and marry software/computer with my outboard solution. Until i came across this workstation. I figured at first it would be a cheaply made unit, until i read all these reviews and saw how other people set their's up. It took about 30 minutes to put the whole thing together and i can tell you the construction and strength and sturdiness is everything you will want and more. Every height and angle is pretty much adjustable. ONLY thing i can say negative is that, it expects you to have a keyboard to stretch across its main centered areas. Sometimes people may have multiple smaller pieces that need to be there, which is when i came up with this idea. You can see with the keyboards, fantom, dp-24 mv-8000, monitors and everything else it holds it all. I came up with a cool solution to add sturdy shelves to the unit. I had an extra ikea tv stand called "lack" that i disassembled and used the big flat laminated wood pieces for extra width to hold everything. Look at the pics and you will see that this couldnt be a better tighter fit than it is. The price was right and the quality is spot on. Not to mention my NS-10m's are now finally at a perfect mastering angle made a huge difference. I am very happy with this and it consolidated a lot of my "always used" equipment right in front of me.

Love It!

I was looking for a studio desk where I could have every piece of my home studio (which I mean my 88 keys synth, one small MIDI controller, two 6" monitor speakers, my computer and my rack mountable recording interface) in a very sturdy place but compact at the same time. This is it! The On-Stage WS8700 was exactly what I was looking for! It holds everything perfectly, sturdy and in a relative small space in comparison with other products on the market.

Now, even though this looks kind of like a Keyboard stand (in terms of portability), this is not! Therefore, it's not portable, and it's heavy. As you may know, this runs more in the studio workstation/desk direction rather than a keyboard stand. So it's not the best choice if you're looking for portability.

In summary, if you are a keyboardist/composer and home recordist that wants to have one place to put it all and at the same time wants sturdiness and to save room space, you can't go wrong with this product!

I purchased one of these a year ago and it works great!!!

It helped me arrange and clean-up our little office/studio room. It is a very, very sturdy
unit. If you have very little space or need to keep all of your studio gear in one small area of you room nicely arranged, than this is you ticket.

When ordering, keep in mind that this BEAST ships in three different (Heavy) boxes!!!

I will Admit that I found this unit with the best price at pssl.com!!!!

Nice piece of furniture. I was looking for something that would keep my Studio together and this fits the bill nicely.

Only beef is lack of flat surface for a mixer. I would also like it to be even more adjustable in terms of keyboard height.

The price says it all. sure beats the competitions price for this item.

Definitely one of the best value product for the price. I also own a quiklok Z555. The only thing Z555 is better that it has a Mixer table and roller caster. This stand is really well engineered and easy to ensemble. I wish it has at least 8 rack space or more.

I have been looking for a workstation for some time. I order this one. It came on time. Assembly was fairly easy. Once it is put together it's functional and looks great. [...] If you are looking for a solid work station, this should do it.

I bought this rig mainly for a computer desk. I needed something with flexibility. I got adjustable monitor mounts for dual monitors. Next I'll add a flat surface.

The stand came in 3 boxes securely packaged. Had to use the online manual as none was in the box. Also had to look at one of the other on-stage stands to figure out which knobs to use for height adjustment, (knobs were not identified properly). One riser didn't line up with the holes in side B so it had to be drilled. Stand is fully adjustable and built solid. Makes DAW use a breeze as everything is at your fingertips. I am currently using a mid size tower, one 19" LCD, Korg M50 61 key and a Roland A30 with the stand. My monitors JBL model 38s are too large but Behringer Truth will work fine with it. All in all a stand that has made my life a lot easier.

I'm putting together a home studio built around this workstation. It holds my 88 & 61 key boards, and studio monitors nicely. For now I have a mixer on one of the platforms. I haven't acquired a new computer but, I do have an old laptop on the 4th platformIt[...]. It's pretty stable due to the "outrigger" legs behind each "Z".My first complaint is the unit should be able to adjust a little bit lower than it's minimum. Not a show stopper.The second minor issue is the CPU tower clearance. It looks like a shade over 16 inches in the configuration I'm using - keyboard as low as possible. This might be an issue as I shop for new iron to replace my (ancient) laptop. I suppose the hot setup would be to have a rack-mount case mounted in workstations rack.So far I'm really pleased with it. Meets my essential needs very well: sturdy, stable and has capacity to hold a lot of gear.

this desk is solid, and makes a great daw desk, I used some 4'/2' ply and a 1'/4' pine to turn this keyboard desk into a daw desk, slap on some black stain done[...]

If you're looking for a home set-up solution, this workstation fits the bill perfectly. i would not recommend it as a mobile solution, but for home/studio set ups its great. all my tools on one rig all the time. Great!!

Organized all of my gear and brought it within arms reach. Has a place for everything, is very customizable, and expandable. Had one problem with the hole for a bolt being drilled in the wrong place, but there was another bolt within 2 inches and it was in a plcae where there was structural support from three other steel bars. It took about 1 1/2 hours to assemble. If you're going to put anything on the 2nd tier, it will have to be 33" minimum or you'll have to add something to span the distance between the brackets. I found that some leftover bamboo flooring planks that I had worked nicely.

If you're looking for a compact but sturdy stand for home studio use, this is an awesome stand. It is NOT a flimsy workstation. The steel framework and tubing is more than enough to withstand the beating that a frustrated artist/musician can dish out. The design is highly flexible with lots of ways to adjust heights and widths to accomodate your gear. My only issue is the assembly instructions which were adequate but somewhat sparse. It ships in 3 boxes, with the instructions buried in the bottom of one, so don't freak out when you open the boxes and don't find instructions right away. Overall, the combined flexibility and features for the ProStand is perfect for holding your turntables, keyboards, monitors, and rackmount devices for your home studio.

I wanted a versitle workstation for my Pro Tools studio. Unfortunately teh CPU stand is not large enough vor my computer. Teh adjustable monitlr/??? stands are not level so teh monitors sit at a slight angle. The workstation is very heavy duty. It would not work for a mobile installation. far too bulky.

This rack is the real deal. I had my doubts when i bought it, cause it LOOKS sweet but i hadn't seen it anywhere so i thought it might be cheap and flimsy, but its NOT. This stand is a beast. it's perfect for any keyboardist/pianist who needs a good work station that can hold you're computer, keyboard, speakers, mixer and even has a rack for for fx processors and what not.

I have all my gear in my room which is carpeted and on my old stand when i played the keyboard would shake around because of the thick carpet. but this workstation is ROCK SOLID. It's heavy enough to not feel like a flimsy stand, but light enough if you need to take it on a gig.

I highly recommend this keyboard to anyone it's highly versatile and and very high quality. it's the real deal.
