OnStage On-Stage MSA5000 Mic Stand Laptop Mount

I purchased this item to hold my laptop for camera tethering or general mounted use. Just make sure whatever you're mounting it to you have the right adapter or it is the correct threading I adapted it down to a standard tripod mount and mounted this on a ball head with the counterweighted boom stand and it works extremely well the metal also acts as a heat sink and cools the computer down and the slats cut into it keep any excess heat from building up her used to use a laptop cooling pad but with this I do not need it. I'm currently using this with a MacBook Pro 15 inch and it fits very securely I feel confident leaving The laptop on the mount without worrying it will slip out

With all of the recent zoom calls I have been doing I needed a solution for a convenient, sturdy and portable way to isolate my laptop and be able to use it for teleconferencing. I had a sturdy mic stand already and this was a super value to attach to the top, so I could use it sitting or standing. It has a couple of brackets to secure your laptop in place, is vented for cooling, comes with adhesive foam pads to cushion, and is made of sturdy metal. Once I assembled, I found I used it for other things around the studio besides just a laptop mount, really any reason you would need a small surface, like to hold an ipad as a teleprompter, hold a small mixer, prop up a smart phone while shooting a selfie or face-timing, etc. Here's the catch, you will need a sturdy mic stand with a standard adapter for it to work correctly (to attach it to). I already had one so I only had to spend the $15 to make mine work perfectly. I was going to give it 4 stars only because I felt like it should have a tilt feature built in, but for $15 you can't expect too many moving parts!

Pleasantly surprised given the low price! I'm a photographer and I've been looking for a more portable laptop table that I can fly with. All of the others by Matthews and TetherTools are a little too large to fit in a packed flight case or backpack. At just 10 inches deep this one works great! I figured it would be cheap plastic but no - it's made of sturdy black coated metal! It even has ventilation slots - TetherTools doesn't even have that! And it has adjustable metal grips that can hold on to the side of your laptop and keep it steady. The only issue I have is one of the front screw holes for a clip(?) was mis-drilled and won't work. But those clips are too small to be useful anyway so no big deal. It also didn't come with any instructions on how to assemble the parts. One note - if you're a photographer who wants to use this you'll need an adapter to fit the 5/8 female mount onto your 3/8 or 1/4 screws that tripods and photo stands use.

Works great with my 15" MacBook Pro. Sits atop the mic stand securely. It won't keep your laptop from falling off if the stand gets tipped forward or held upside down, but for standard use this mount keeps the laptop secure even when you're running cables. I got a On-Stage MST1000 U-Mount Microphone Stand Tray to mount on the same mic stand and hold my USB audio interface. The whole rig works very nicely and always goes with me when I'm using my laptop for recording or performance.

I had a spare mic stand and decided to use it as a laptop stand while doing tethered camera shots. It is made of heavy steel, painted flat black, screws directly to a 5/8 mic stand, and has enough adjustable points to keep your laptop from falling off by accident (a big plus!) I like this laptop platform, good stuff, made well enough I may never need to buy another one.

I tried to use this in my mic stand and the size of the thread is different , so I spend some time looking for a adaptor , maybe add some options could be great

Seems to be well made and is very reasonably priced. Made of metal and seems very sturdy. I just received it so I can't say how well it will hold up.

great for placing my harmonicas case and sound effect, right next to me where I need them .

I was looking for a stand so I could use my laptop with a trainer bike. Most of the stands I saw were very expensive. I stumbled on this attachment. It was inexpensive and I had extra mic stands so I took a chance. Very pleased with the result. Easy to install, very stable and fits both a Mac air and HP laptop. I ended up buying a second one (a return) for use in my office. I run my laptop through an external monitor with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse. With the stand I can keep my laptop off my desk and use it as a second monitor for email monitoring. We now also use it for video calls with our children. With the mic stand I can adjust it for direct shots. Definitely worth the price and a great deal if you already have mic stands.

Muy fácil de ensamblar las piezas que vienen con la plataforma que permiten asegurar la laptop. Monté esta plataforma en un stand para micrófono. Tiene la rosca y queda perfectamente. No se requiere de adaptador. Le coloqué la laptop y la aseguré. La laptop queda bastante segura. Muy estable. Incliné la plataforma (bastante, como unos 30°) y no sentí miedo de que se caiga por la forma en que los "seguros" (si así puedo llamarles) agarran a la lap. El precio es bastante bueno. La calidad de los materiales es mejor de lo que esperaba. ¡Altamente recomendable!

Its ok
