So iāve been planning out a desk build and wanted to test something out. My 1 year old loves crawling under my desk and pulling on all the cables so I mocked this up to attach to my existing standing desk and itās working perfect! I wanted something where I could tuck the gear away when iām not using it, some rack space, cable management, and have ample desk space for the other things I do.
Not running any monitors right now, just my Hifiman Edition XS. The Virus has cured most of my GAS, but I still need to get a good workflow down with the OT.
Not sure when iāll get to the actual desk build, but this will definitely hold me over for awhile

Very clever design!
Does all the extra weight at the back unbalance the desk or make it tilt in that direction?
Surprisingly not! I should have used 1/2" plywood, but I only had 3/4" lying around. Itās definitely not light, but it goes up and down fine and doesnāt tilt or feel unstable at all. Iām curious what it will be like if I add monitors to it thoughā¦
I am a fan of being able to tuck your gear away when not using, especially if you WFH

You could put a 2.1 system in with lower weight mid/tops and a sub on the floor to alleviate the weight on the desk that a pair of full range speakers would have maybe?

There are more important things than synthesizers. Hope youāre healing well.

I know you didnāt ask me about chairs directly but I can recommend Steelcase chairs - Iāve got an Amia (in brutal orange). Love it!
Edit: just noticed the price tag for a new one!! My work paid for it as a WFH enabling gesture, and I sourced one 2nd hand for about Ā£300.
Itās got loads of adjustable elements including the lumbar back part which can protrude orā¦ contrude? Antitrude? Not sure if an antonym of that word existsā¦ Now my mind is going all wordy lol!

Iām not really using this all at once. Usually just one or two pieces, recording stereo jams through AH into standalone Overbridge. Sometimes, if Iām feeling it, Iāll record stems and finish in Ableton.

Thank you for sharing your lovely Steelcase chair!
This last summer, I replaced my Ikea Markus chair with a very good condition 1977 Steelcase 451 chair, in 70s orange fabric and black trim. Amazingly, my back is much happier, and the chair suits my interior decorating preferenceāāsuper villian chicā. These Steelcase chairs will be around until the end of time. lol.
