Ideal height of control board for bar/table top cab?
« on: July 29, 2011, 10:11:18 pm »
The controller sits about 4.5" off the counter surface; is this a confortable height to stand and play at?  I'll probably mostly be playing off of desks and tables and just looking at the controller now it kind of feels low.   :dunno

It would be a good height if you were sitting at the bar or table.  If you want to play standing you are going to have to experiment with different tables and bars to see what is comfy.  Lots of bars are much higher than tables so it might still be OK based on a high bar and high bar stools.   On a table I can see it being too low.
