About the MIDAS EASYTILT-STD 28.5" Easy Tilt Stand for Medium and Large Format Midas Digital and Analog Consoles
The MIDAS EASYTILT-STD is a dedicated console stand engineered to provide secure, stable, and ergonomic support for medium to large format mixing consoles from the brand's professional digital and analog series. Its primary function is to position the console at an optimal height and angle for the operator, reducing fatigue during long sessions and improving accessibility to all controls and the central touchscreen. The stand is designed with a specific focus on live sound and studio applications where the console serves as the central command hub, requiring both rock-solid stability to prevent unwanted movement and a precise tilt mechanism that allows the engineer to fine-tune the console's surface for the best possible viewing and reach. The robust construction ensures it can handle the substantial weight and footprint of high-channel-count mixers without flex or resonance.
A key feature of this model is its integrated, tool-free tilt adjustment mechanism. This system typically employs a gas-assisted strut or a calibrated friction-based design that allows the operator to smoothly raise or lower the console's front edge to the desired angle with minimal effort and then lock it securely in place. This adaptability accommodates different user heights, seating preferences, and visual sightlines to both the surface controls and any onboard displays. The stand's architecture often includes a large, centralized equipment shelf or rack space underneath the console surface, providing valuable real estate for outboard gear, power conditioners, or networking equipment, thereby keeping essential accessories organized and within reach while conserving floor space.
Built from heavy-duty steel with a durable finish, the EASYTILT-STD is designed for both permanent installation in fixed venues and repeated touring use. Its assembly is straightforward, often featuring bolt-together construction for easier transport, and includes integrated handles or castor cup recesses for mobility. The design carefully manages cable routing with multiple grommeted access points, promoting a clean and professional setup. By addressing the critical needs of stability, ergonomic adjustability, and ancillary storage, this stand transcends being mere furniture; it is an integral part of the console system that enhances the operator's comfort, efficiency, and control over the mixing environment.
