The fact that you got the exact same keyboard as mine, make this video a invaluable resource for me...I don't even need to take measurements! EDIT: even the speakers are the same lol
Can’t go wrong with this gear setup and glad this vid is helping you 🙂
Speaking of the same gear, I ordered this keyboard and it will arrive in 3 days. Can't to wait to KeyLab my studio :) Thanks for sharing this bro
Whyd you skip the part where you installed it? 🤦🏻♂️
My bet is he most likely fucked up along the way and didn't wanna show the fails 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I would've fucked up too and done the same before showing the final result lmao.
Ikea Gerton/Oddvald gang unite! This is exactly what I was looking for. I have a 16" deep desk rack that takes up most of my desk so I want to move my peripherals to a tray to save some space.
haha yesss!
I'm also in AZ (like that matters). I just came across your video because I'm looking at the same battle, but on a larger scale. I have two cheap 40" Walmart glass desks next to each other with a piece of glass clamped across their two keyboard trays. The result is that there's plenty of room, but I have the damn legs right in the center and my chair leg keeps hitting them unless I rotate it just right. Small problem, but multiply it over many hours over many days over many years and it may be the thing that puts me over the edge. I have two laptops (work and personal,) a 27" monitor, an old 24" monitor that I turned vertical just because I can, 49 key MIDI keyboard, 5" studio monitors, a guitar processor, USB interface, a couple of salt lamps, a 4 channel headphone amp, USB hub, power selector... I've loved it and can reach everything, but cable management and dust are driving me nuts all of a sudden. I'm looking into getting a 60" standup desk and that means re-imagining how this stuff works and that includes what to do with this keyboard. I'm a guitar player, so it only gets used sometimes. Transport control in Pro Tools, a sound or a synth pad here and there, but nothing crazy. That brings me to your video and wanting to put it under the desk. Paying the price of a used Kia Rio for a studio desk doesn't seem like the business nor does paying 3 figures for some fancy add-on shelf. I think I'm going to follow your example and just get a pair of adjustable slide rails. Like you said, it lives under the desk. To paraphrase, who gives a sh|t?
When homie said,”Yesterday was 118 degrees”!! I damn near passed out from a heat stroke just hearing that 🥵💀
LOL yeah man, thats AZ heat for ya
This is exactly what I want man....this and a stand up desk with motors so you don't have the battle with knees 😂 Nice set up brother
Haha thanks man.
thanks for the vid, bro! i was struggling to find a solution similar to yours :) almost ordered a separate stand to put under the table.
Great tutorial: I'm buying all the parts as we speak,
Also: a SILLY SIMPLE SOLUTION for SURVIVING CAR TRIPS IN 118 DEGREE WEATHER:
Buy one of those foldable windshield screens (made of thin aluminum foil) and keep it in your truck during the hot season. You car will be just as hot but you won't burn yourself on you black vinyl dashboard). We even do that in temperate Northern California!
Thanks!
Very helpful thanks gonna use it on my barn desk build!
My pleasure :) When you mentioned barn desk build I was intrigued and went to your channel and now hooked on the history of that barn lol
@@AdilConstantineMusic that's amazing to hear! This desk is about to become part of that story.
@@travisraab yesss! Subbed, I can’t wait to see how it turns out :) great content man!
@@AdilConstantineMusic wow thanks so much Likewise!
Nice work! Say, what about leg room? I'm thinking about doing something like this, but I'm worried about the leg room when not using the keyboard, which is most of the time.
This is what I was looking for. Thank you!
Thanks for this super simple and effective solution!
my pleasure :)
hi.. I wish I could see how you attached it underneath though. I understand the railings on the side, but then what? Doing the same for my minimalist set up and not mechanically inclined over here. 😅 I'm in SWFL I understand that summer heat, it's on its way here in a few months.
Thanks my man!! Was looking to just this!!!
Can you share the picture of the bracket which holds the slider?
i looekd thsi vid up just to make the same thing for my gaming pc so i dont have to lean forward to reach for the keyboard
Great job dude, I wanna do this myself for a while now ! Does it get in the way of your knees ?
Prdimahovina thank you!! It doesn’t really unless you like to cross your legs at 90 degrees
Thanks for the video! How is it with the space for your legs? I'm not sure if I could sit comfortably at my desk if I had the keyboard between my legs and the desk.
There was a good amount of space. Now days with standing desks this shouldn’t be a problem
BUT how did you mount under desk? Is it screwed, bolted, what?
The most secure part of this build is mounting to the desk... and thats completely missing.
Great idea! Thank you for making this encouraging video!
My pleasure 🙏💙
look clean! good job!
Thank you
Do you still like it? I saw the Amazon review saying it is a piece of junk. Thanks...
Amazing! Thanks for the inspiration! I'm gonna do the same. Could you please tell me two things:
1. Does it hold your keyboard? I mean, do the screws manage to hold the keyboard and the tray without falling out and tearing the wood out?
2. What is the initial height of your table?
Will appreciate your answer a lot!
Hi im glad you enjoyed the video :) Yes the tray held up nicely and the Keyboard was not going anywhere. I would say make sure you're using good carpentry screws. As far as the initial height I believe it was about 27 inches. Good luck :)
@@AdilConstantineMusic Amazing! Thanks for reply, will try to modify my own table now :D
@@Divuar Best of luck :)
Etsy has custom under desk trays for large keyboards / pianos
Awesome build. You inspired me to do the same.
Thank you, I’m glad to hear it 🙂
looks sick dude, was just looking for something like this. thank you for making the video im stealing this;)
My pleasure dude!
Exactly what I need!
+Jeff Goddard awesome :)
Sick dude! Looks good!
Thanks man
Hi this is a great video!
Exactly what I was looking for.
I'm unable to find the type of brackets that mount to the desk top.
Can someone paste a link on what to search for that?
I don't know if they exist really. In here you see the tray sliders. They (each of the two) have in this case a holder that is supposed to attach somewhere. This holders are too short to be able to attach directly under the desk because of the keyboard height and they are perpendicular to the desk so basically impossible to do it directly. It's not very clear how he does it but usually (probably he did that way) you need to have some "L" shaped ankers/holders/plates. So you attach that under the table and then attach the 4 parts we mentioned before to them. Regards
Strange ... thought I had commented on this. With the whole corona thing I've been working from home since march or so by now. And since I traded in my new syntheziser for a bigger / better model I don't really have room for it where the FA07 was. So I've contracted a local carpenter to make me a custom built office in which the new synth can fit as well. Really looking forward to it, because now the new Fantom 8 is standing in an awkward corner which makes it difficult to access it / play it for the time being.
Wow nice! Would love to check out the FA series. Send me a pic when you have your custom setup done :)
@@AdilConstantineMusic Actually the Roland FA-07 I bought in march, right before the Corona stuff happened. And I live in Belgium but the border with The Netherlands is like 10 km from here. And since stuff tends to be a bit cheaper in The Netherlands I bought it in a shop there. But a couple of weeks in I noticed that 2 keys were no longer producing any sound. Due to corona though we were not allowed to cross the border anymore and I couldn't bring it back in time.
In May we were finally allowed to cross the border so I went back to the shop, explained the whole thing. Normally you get a 30 days no questions asked refund, but this had been almost 90 days or so. The shop guy listened to the situation, said tha this should not happen to a Roland device and gave me a full refund.
But I wanted to return with something so I could practice. Waiting for the FA would take 2 months. So I decided to buy the Roalnd Fantom 8 instead. Way over the top for my level, but man I'm loving it.
Nice job, I have the exact same keyboard (ARTURIA Keylab Essentials 49). Do you have maybe 1st encoder (from left side) which jumps over values? Other work smoothly, but this one jumps when I turn it.
118 degrees!?🥵🥵🥵 You said that so casually lol
Very nice!
Just Great, THX alot!!! Only problem, the Slide kit is now sold out : D
+Pete Penicka oh no! Keep checking
Yesss
I want to hide a mid 90s Yamaha 61-key under my desk; i don't feel these rails are going to work for me since my keyboard is 15cm tall! I think i'll need to connect some pieces of wood to the desk with brackets or something like that and then use some slides to attach a keyboard shelf. Also it weighs like 10kg. Oof.
Honestly at that size I would recommend a keyboard stand like this amzn.to/3w4HTiB to keep under your desk
Good job. I made a studio table 2 weeks ago from scratch now I need to add a keyboard tray.
Thanks man, would love to see what you made. Make a video about it :)
How wide is your table? I thought to buy those horsesaw legs and make a solid wood top. Just need for my measurements... That it wont be too tight. But I feel like there is enough room. Just need it as an office desk
It's the GERTON
Tabletop from IKEA 61x29 1/2 "
Very cool! Did ever get your speakers up to ear level and acoustic room treatment?
No :( We moved houses and sadly those are still on my to do list haha
@@AdilConstantineMusic nice. You'll appreciate it when you get there.
@@justin.johnson Oh im sure, thanks for the motivation :)
cool
Dude I have that same desk and supports that you have and also have been wanting to sort something out for my axiom 61! The problem is the lack of space for the knees :/
Yeah knees can be cramped especially if your keyboard got some height on it. I'll take it over cluttering the top of my desk tho :)
@@AdilConstantineMusic totally!
Awesome 👌
this hack is totally estable? no bouncing or moving?
cool man... like it
How far from the front edge of your desk top did you install the sliders? Are the sliders and keyboard shelf set up for full extension when you want to play the keys or sone other distance? I appreciate your feedback. Thanks.
Nice bro. Very creative
Thank you :)
I want the same thing! But I am worried that if I do so there will be no enough space for my legs since my desk is thick.
Valid concern. Just take as many measurements as you can to figure out how much room you’ll have for your legs
Hey man awesome video! I just got the arturia keylab 49 and in my tiny room it’s so uncomfortable having it to the side. What desk do you have? I’m thinking of upgrading from my foldable picnic table so I can add the keyboard slider XD
Thanks for the video! ♥️
My pleasure :)
The Keylab is awesome and it’s so versatile! As far as the desk it’s a table top from ikea, here is my setup kit.co/adilconstantine/desk-setup
@@AdilConstantineMusic omg thank you soooo much!! :3 ♥️
@@luciskies my pleasure 🙂
did they cut the wood for you at home depot or was it precut?
Such a nice job! How did you attach it under your desk? Thank you very much :-)
Go to minute 2:50 and you’ll see when he’s putting that black thing on there’s a part that’s sticking out you screw those to the bottom of the desk and it’ll hang
Hi i am looking for to maybe do something like this. But i have some questions. First of all whatt for desk are you using, is it ikea or something? and second is if this is in your way for your knees and legs or if it works. And third is if an ikea table like karlby which is 3.8cm thicc and the ground material is chipboard can hold a keyboard and the rail with just some screw or if its unstable?
Yeah it's the Gerton table top from Ikea and there is enough room but not enough to cross your legs under it. The screws hold it in nicely
Looking at doing something similar. Did you use a 3/4” thick piece of wood? I saw in a previous comment that it doesn’t get in the way of your knees much, so that’s good. Did you need about 3.5” of height clearance under the desk for the keyboard? Just trying to compare potential setups. Have you considered putting the push next to the keyboard at some point and building a wider shelf?
Is the tray strong enough to support playing?
Yes 👍🏼
Im thinking if the bracket and screws can carry the hybrid or the new MKII 61 keys.
According to Amazon “The maximum loading capacity of each pair of keyboard slide is 22 lbs.”
@@AdilConstantineMusic wow thanks bro. really appre that.
Hi there, looks good!, what type of wood did you use? What is it called?
Is this sturdy enough for an 88 key weighted controller?
Mmm not sure. According to the product description: The maximum loading capacity of each pair of keyboard slide is 22 lbs so keep that in mind with the weight of your keyboard and the piece of wood / tray you're using
Nice!! You’re almost at 1k 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Thank you!!! I knowww 😁 Looking forward to it!
Is that desk from IKEA? I think I have the same top, and hoping to add this tray!
Yes. It’s the Gerton tabletop from IKEA
Hey, great vid. What is the thing in front of the mouse? Wrist pad??
Yes a wrist pad
Where’d you get the sliding arms?
Amazon: amzn.to/3gCUVK6
Hmmmm... I have an Arturia Keylab MK2 61 midi controller... and a desk.
1 + 1 = 2 😁
Exactly what I need! but capable of 32 kg of my Kuraweil K2600XS 88 keys
This hack works for my midi keyboard since it’s about 3 kg. I wouldn’t recommend it for your 32 kg keyboard that’s a lot of weight. maybe try a keyboard stand that can fit under desk ?
Maybe something like this amzn.to/3y5G2c5
@@AdilConstantineMusic That's right, I'm afraid that if a kurzweil of that weight falls on me, it will fracture my feet in addition to losing the keyboard
@@AdilConstantineMusic I was thinking of something similar to zaor furniture but only the keyboard part
Where's your accent from? I wanna do this without drilling into the table. I'll see if I can work with clamps somehow.
How do u keep it from sliding in while using
Where did you get this desk? Can you give me a link?
That was a tabletop I got from IKEA and it doesn’t look like they sell it anymore and this replaced it www.ikea.com/us/en/p/anfallare-tabletop-bamboo-00465141/
This is so dope, wanting to do this, however don't have a sander or a drill lol - are they necessary?
Thank you! You don’t really need them but they help. You can use sanding paper if you want and drill screws manually
Wassuuuuup! For a while ive had in mind to do this to my 36 keys keyboard.. Seeing the end product, really dope, great job man! Saves tons of space really. Do u think there could be some weight probs with the bigger keyboard? Also what site do you recomend to get the trays from. Pce - Mike
There would definitely be a weight problem with my 80lb 88-key Kawai MP11SE.
Can anyone say how sturdy this is while playing the keyboard?
Nice video, hey bro what kind the top table from Ikey is that one?
Gerton Table Top
@@AdilConstantineMusic Thank you and happy holidays.
@@rafaelhernandez5550 YW, Happy Holidays Rafael :)
hey man, great idea and I am going to incorporate that into my setup, just wanted to know what was the size and cost of the piece of wood if you don't mind.
Keyboard stands are more Depeche mode late 80’s geekiness
Seriously, great job , don’t forget the kunoichi mask
Nice beats too
Thank you 😊
3/4 plywood?
can you list parts? or do a walk through with commentary?
Of the whole desk?
@@AdilConstantineMusic Sorry, I didn't see the slide link which is the first link you shared. I scanned your descriptions didn't see it until now.
Thanks!
@@HappyHappyPanda88 no problem :)
Did you build the desk as well?
No it’s from IKEA kit.co/adilconstantine/desk-setup
What is the thickness of the wood?
1 inch
Adil Constantine thanks and how tall is your keyboard
@@foreignproductions6859 2.9"
Adil Constantine is that the lowest the drawer slides can go or can they extend lower
@@foreignproductions6859 They can extend much lower. The mounting L brackets have 5 holes you can screw the track into and Im on the 2nd from bottom. (I hope that made sense)
It's not a vlog unless the RUclipsr sits down aggressively at the beginning

Those glasses look uncomfortable.
They were with the mask on 😷
