I have a whole chest of electronic noiseboxes, small mixers, stompboxes, an Ableton Push, a laptop computer... each job gets a different selection of tools, for which I always need a surface.
While laptop stands exist in a variety of formats (the same manufacturer makes a really commendable one that I own, too), for the rest of my tabletop devices there seem to exist nothing specific. Which wouldn't be a problem, if there was a way to understand why no promoter or venue can seem to find a table for my instruments, even when they got my rider weeks and months ago.
Enter the K&M Percussion table, finally: it holds my Push firmly and safely, or my atonal synth, my feedback synth, the small pedalboard I short-circuit through my set, or the 8-channel mixer I use in the NIMB fashion, and anything else in my set that isn't an amp.
I have more than one of these now, so I place them in a half-circle around me, each with a black microfiber swimning towel velcroed in front of it, down during the show, and covering it before the show starts; finally my set is now always firm, reachable, safe and... great looking, too, I can't find a host who doesn't compliment of how neat my stagekit looks from the audience perspective.
The carrying load is noted on the specs sheet as 10kg, which is fair and honest, this manufacturer won't lie: place your 3kg of equipment on top of it, add your hands' weight when you're playing it, and you're home, but it won't bend or sway or spread open to the ground.
A word of advice, though, to the less tech-minded among us: its surface is lined with a soft, felt-like, quasi-furry synthetic mat, which is great for the original purpose, and most gear, too; but don't ignore how your computer might have air intake underneath or on its sides that may get obstructed by this, so do your homeworks and check it out before you cook it!
Also worth to be mentioned, if looks are important in your line of duty, that there's a carrying bag sold as accessory. If you plan to have one, don't throw away the cardboard wrap of the tripod stand, or it won't ever stand up again (the bag, I mean)!
