Customization Info
Recessable Center Keyboard/Console Shelf*
*The shelf is set flush to the padded armrest by default, making a continuous work surface.
The primary equipment shelf is designed to 'sink' or recess your keyboard or console so that it's operating surface is set flush or near to flush with the desktop. There's an example in the image gallery in which the red keyboard is recessed to the bottom of it's white keys. In another example, an Avid S3 and Dock are recessed so they are flush with the desktop.
Upon placing your order, you may specify the depth of the recess you require.
Centre Shelf Width
- Minimum width: 800mm (makes overall desk width 1879mm)
- Default width: 1100mm (makes overall desk width 2179mm)
- Maximum width 1540mm (makes overall desk width 2585mm)
Upon placing your order, you may specify any width in the range 800 to 1540mm
Please note! Specifying the width of the shelf, in turn, modifies the width of the computer display and mid level shelves and will ultimately change the desk's overall width.
Console/Keyboard Shelf Depth
As measured from front to back is 390mm. If your console or keyboard is deeper, The shelf may be split into two pieces of 195mm depth. The two pieces are then set a distance from one another and the console spans the gap in between.
Customized for these DAW Control Surfaces, Audio & Video Consoles
If you don't see your console in this list, please get in contact with us via the 'Enquire Now' link above and let us know how we can help.
Size Note:
In the case your console is deeper (front to back) than the desk's listed depth, the worktop will need to be increased to accommodate. This will, in turn, increase the overall depth of the desk. We usually recommend 50-100mm clearance between the rear of the console and the rear of the desk.
