Optumum height for decks.

[FabDJ]

Planning on standing or sitting on a stool when I dj instead of sitting at a table or standing over it and cant find a comfortable height to set my deck at, any suggestons? 1070mm from the floor is too high and before I cut my speaker pole support for my rostrum would like to know what other people suggest.

Belly button height table with decks on it works for me.

[Gandy]

any possibilty of putting the two decks on slanted adjustable stands at about chest level? Might save your back a bit, i think djaz has a pic of his setup, should be quite portable too, that way you dont have to worry about the perfect height table

[FabDJ]

Ta Andy if I can find my bellybutton I'll measure it from the floor.

ha ha ha your a cack fab.

for me i like the height of the platter to be such that my it is just below my elbow while i am standing straight up. so when touching the record my forearm is slightly bent from the elbow (if that makes sense). i.e not at 90 degrees and no more than 45 degrees.

this allows me to play without bending my back.

Thanks boys

Might go with the elbow height as it seems comfortable.

Have been stacking books on a bench to determine if this is the right height for working the controls.

pretty much a better explanation of what i was trying to say lol

my table sits about upper leg level, but with the height of the decks and the roadcase they end up being about crotch level..higher would be better

[FabDJ]

Cut the pole and height seems ok

Can see over the laptop screen also so can purve on the babes

Thanks all.
