ambient Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 All my real books are on pdf, plus I’m using iOS based processing for my solo bass stuff. Can anyone recommend a decent floor stand please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldslapper Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 You’ll probably get suggestions via PM. .(....no one’s going to publicly declare of any knowledge of “stands” for stage) 🤫 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Do you mean a stand alone stand? Or clamp for a mic stand? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon sell the holder to fit on the light stand which ends up basically the same as the second option. I tend to use a clamp attached to the mic stand as it's one less stand in small spaces. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanOwens Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 I use a hercules clamp for an iPad 2. It's on that holds opposite corners and springs shut. It's great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just a bit wary of the reliability of Amazon reviews 😁. I’ve got a Hercules bass stand, I guess it’ll work attached to the bass stand?

Not the ones I linked they go on lighting stands or tripods you'd need one designed to clamp to the stand not screw in the top. I have indeed used a bass stand to clamp a tablet holder.

Paul S Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 I use the Hercules one that has dual fixings to either clamp into the side of a mic stand or onto the top of one if you aren't using a mic. Fits a range of sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubsonicSimpleton Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 You can use this type of music stand and cut down the top to a more suitable size https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tiger-Orchestral-Conductors-Adjustable-Music/dp/B002GOHCTA Its a more agricultural approach than the clips, but wont fall to pieces or need replacing with a different model if you change your tablet/case. Worth looking around if you go this route as these type of stands can be picked up for as little at £10 new from some of the big music etailers, and even less used.

Edit - well the screw and nut it threads into for the side clamp are metal but the rest is plastic. Edited May 2, 2019 by Paul S 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted May 2, 2019 Author Share Posted May 2, 2019 This is my bass stand, a Hercules grab type. I’m hoping that whatever I get will just clamp onto it, save carrying more than one thing about with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
