I have been using a 12 South Compass iPad stand. Bought it cheaply years ago, I guess the new ones are more expensive, but you can find cheaper refurbished ones online. Very sturdy, stable and portable (folds up). You can have the Electra stand up for programming next to your computer, or for “performance” it can lay down at a perfect low angle, but with enough clearance you can slip your laptop underneath it. ![IMG_8109](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/1X/e65f2f4c5c5fdf110bfda42494e40297db638ef1.jpeg)! ![IMG_8121](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/1X/c8823099d1795651f4e006176968748e4dafa343.jpeg) ---

Well, it may be possible to designate on the order whether someone wanted a USB A or C cable, but that would be a pretty big hassle for you because then you would have to stock both. FWIW I don’t favor adapters, so I order USB A–\>C or USB B–\>C cable, which frequently work out to be cheaper than adapters. Don’t worry, I use the included cable elsewhere! ---

With monitor, interface, mouse, keyboard, blokas, electra and a spare cable for overbridge connect to my MacBook all the time, I use a hub that is also a Powersource, so I only need to connect one cable to it. So I go B to A on most Devices still. ---

well, no, I did not mean not to include it. I think the product must be sold so that you can use it without buying anything else. As @marzzz said, maybe an option on the order page. ---

The Focusrite Clarett Thunderbolt audio interfaces (now discontinued) did not include a cable, and I remember customers were a bit annoyed by that. Their current USB interfaces include both a USB A-\>A and a USB A-\>C cable. If the option solution is practical, that would be the best approach. ---

First post to this forum and it’s to jump in on this ancient thread. I seem to have found a pretty great/cheap stand for the E1 and wanted to share. This is the basic stand: [https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/940169324/small-medium-synth-stand-for-korg-volca](https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/940169324/small-medium-synth-stand-for-korg-volca). The guy who runs the shop was happy to make a custom version to match the 189mm hold depth of the E1. I went for the 45º version. It’s 3d printed but solid enough. The plastic is a bit slippery but that was easily fixed by cutting some adhesive non-slip mat to suit. The E1 now sits very securely. ![IMG_6141](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/b/b35de56829bdfeaef6519bae4c93dfb95fa5d420.jpeg) ![IMG_6142](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/a/aa5ba1779e3b64f1622113eaba9ca67075520d72.jpeg) ---

I got an excellent stand from the same supplier as @skadoo, Cold Earth Industries [https://www.etsy.com/shop/ColdEarthIndustries](https://www.etsy.com/shop/ColdEarthIndustries) or, for customers in UK, [https://coldearthindustries.com/](https://coldearthindustries.com/). This was a custom design for me but, unlike @skadoo‘s, based on their premium range. As a result, it comes with feet that stop it sliding around. They can do a 45, 30 or 15 degree slope. I went for 30, though I’m sure 45 would be good too. £22 + shipping. ![2025-08-18 12-36-34 Electra One on stand front](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/f/fcde7ec12fe0b3695d609e109379d711eb7e3311.jpeg) ![2025-08-18 12-39-43 Electra One on stand angle](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/1/125ccc6956640e14a34a8e1a8bd3b903fbbca049.jpeg) ![2025-08-18 12-39-55 Electra One on stand side](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/0/0244060be985d4336b219d4122a501dd8f179616.jpeg) ![2025-08-18 12-38-39 Electra One on stand rear angle](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/0/06930312071236e740e62ca4b9d9b9cc30fbf2c6.jpeg) ![2025-08-18 12-37-31 Electra One stand angle](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/c/c037e95413152699aaafd67dbe391a045640d70f.jpeg) ![2025-08-18 12-37-50 Electra One stand bottom](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/0/06ab3ef77e409e50b4df21b63538d84d4434dc4d.jpeg) ---

I am totally addicted to these tablet/laptop stands. With the E1 Mini having VESA mounts I paid a little more ($30) for an adjustable VESA stand and I’m very happy with it. It’s heavy and solid as a rock - really, it doesn’t jiggle AT ALL. I usually use a position between the two shown and put a wireless phone charger on the rather large baseplate. > **[Amazon.com: WEARSON WS-03A Adjustable LCD TV Stand Folding Metal Monitor Desk...](https://www.amazon.com/Wearson-WS-03A-Adjustable-Folding-100x100mm/dp/B00XUF2GBI)** > > Amazon.com: WEARSON WS-03A Adjustable LCD TV Stand Folding Metal Monitor Desk Stand With VESA Hole 75x75mm&100x100mm : Electronics ![1000014830](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/a/a6a8d5c94ee45bfb262c1c03542a4bc7bc45a5fc.jpeg) ![1000014829](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/electraone/original/2X/5/588f3ab32ab65419ff716926f40e740642a71b47.jpeg) ---

I mainly just put it in that position to show the min/max of the stand, but it’s pretty stable. The unit is so small it’s easy to put my fingers round the back of it if necessary. I keep it somewhere between the two pictures and it doesn’t move at all when I push buttons/knobs. With the E1 Mini on the stand the whole thing weighs 2 kilos, so it’s hefty. Also, there are mounting holes on the underside of the base so it could be secured (even to a vertical surface) like a power strip.
