    I'm going to be buying Maschine in a couple of weeks. While reading up and going through people's posts, I saw a great idea mentioned about using a snare stand as a way to hold Maschine (for those of us who don't have any desk space, and as an easier way to access the unit, since it can be angled). I know NOTHING about snare stands at all :( . I was wondering if some of you who do use a snare stand to hold your unit, could tell me which one you bought that works quite well for you, and/or if either of these stands (linked below) would be ones that would work well. Thank you in advance for both your time and help :) .

    Anyone? Please? I know my question must be pretty dumb, but I'd really appreciate your advice. I'm not sure as to whether all or only certain snare stands can incline to 45 degrees and securely hold Maschine. If only certain stands can incline to this degree, I want to make sure to steer clear of the ones that don't. Thank you in advance. And again, I'm sorry if this question is extremely dumb (I highly suspect it is now), but I'd really appreciate it if someone could shed some light on this. I'm more than a little confused. Thanks :)

    If you are close to any Guitar Centers, Sam Ash and the others, take a quick trip in to see. I've only seen one person using a snare stand, so far in the post I've read.

    If you find a stand that feels really sturdy, you should be good to go, just keep in mind
    how hard you bang the pads, and if it will be tall enough for you to be comfortable.

    My 2 cents
