True. You can get a nice Traktor branded flight case for around $200 ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004EKMR30/ref=pd_aw_sim_MI_1?refRID=1YG94EQNBC0GDBNZJKA0)
I use a very similar stand to that one - the DR Pro laptop stand - which is a little pricier but has the nice feature of having a second shelf and being width-adjustable. The slightly cheaper On-Stage Stands version also has a shelf but is not width adjustable. I would at least spring for that one instead of the one you linked, because of the extra mounting hardware and the shelf. I don't have any pictures at the moment unfortunately.
I'm not sure how build quality differs between the manufacturers since they appear to be largely the same design, but my DR Pro one is very rugged and gig-worthy. The on-stage stands one probably is as well.
Okay, well this is from the US Amazon site but it comes out to $500 USD, or $635 CAD
Turntable: Pro-Ject Debut Carbon
Phono Preamplifier: Pro-Ject Phono Box DC
I'd use the remaining funds on up-keep & accessories like a carbon fiber brush, a cork mat and a stylus cleaner
It really isn't
I carry this in my trunk all the time - it's sturdy, adjustable, and fits a large laptop nicely. The small lip on the edge is also great to keep your device from sliding off if bumped.

You'd be surprised how expensive these things actually are!
The model I have is a couple years old but here's a new one going for 650: http://www.amazon.com/SKB-12U-Shock-Mount-Rack/dp/B000EENJYG
It really doesn't make sense to me.
This one, but white.
I've found it to be pretty sturdy. Only problem is it doesn't come with washers, and it kinda needs them because the supports for the laptop have a little width to them. Because of that, the bottom bar is always just a bit shorter than the top 2 bars. Still works without them though. I tightened mine too tightly to get the knob off the bottom, so it's been washerless but has worked for like 6 months so far with no problem.

Something like that? Is there a stand for something like this? Definitely gonna look i to bed risers cause ya boy is definitely working off a folding table right now
from first hand experience, i could tell you that i love my laptop stand.
it’s decent priced and the build quality is sturdy as hell. i’ve had it for over a year and it hasn’t even moved an inch.
i'm always switching things around but in this case i was using the sp to process my samples before sampling them into the mpc. some eq or vinyl sim. sometimes i'll do it the other way around once i have a complete beat produced on the mpc, i'll run it through the sp to effect the entire master bus.
i'm pretty sure this is the stand i got: https://www.amazon.com/Hola-Music-HPS-290B-Professional-Projector/dp/B07F3X3RT9/
if i'm doing something sample based i'll usually find a 8 or 16 bar loop i like and chop it across all 16 pads. sometimes i'll lay drums first and then play the samples on top, sometimes i mess around with the sample until i find a pattern i like and then add drums on top. then i mix and master in logic
Just a general question, my parents got me one of those crosley suitcase players (please dont crucify me, they had good intentions), but Im strapped for cash for awhile, so cant afford a new player. I've been reading that these players needles are absolute shit and will destroy records. Is there a needle replacement (a youtuber said these were pretty good) that I could add that won't get dull so fast? Any recommendations on how to get the most out of this turntable? (I already hooked it up to external speakers, mostly thinking about needle/arm replacements). Im still pretty new to vinyl, any help would be appreciated!
this is the stand - I have two. Strong. Stable. The board pictured in this post is the one I put on the stand. If I remember correctly it’s a Donner board. And a Donner power supply. I specifically got the mixer so we can use the 12 V on that. I use the 18V for the Digitech dirt pedal. I daisychain a few of the analog pedals together on one of the 100ma 9V outs. A few other pedals get dedicated 100ma lines. There are two higher-ma 9v outs. I use one for the outer rings and the other for the Rubberneck. Another feature: I run a daisychain out from one of the 100ma powerports to the electro-Faustus drone thing and the other no-name 6 oscillator drone synth I sometimes plug into this board. … Hope that’s enough power info!
Currently in three bands, I only use this one in synthband.com, see url for deets. All improv. Actual improv, rather than what most people call improv, which is mostly improv. So, it’s varied. Sometimes we slip into a genre, often noise. I have three other boards we use in that band, too. (here are two of them ) The band has never been the same lineup twice so that keeps things fresh.
Other bands (which don’t use this pedalboard) iCurd.com (a recording project) and Gurtrudestein, a horror-punk outfit I joined as a bassist. Small board there: polytune, mxr m80, electro-Faustus super disruptor.
… I think I covered everything?
This is pretty unique! I'm a beginning DJ, and I would absolutely love if I could get a decal of my logo. You can find it Here. Thanks again!
EDIT: Forgot to add an Amazon thing. This is probably where i'd put it! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004EKMR30/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I got this case:
(http://www.amazon.com/Native-Instruments-Traktor-Kontrol-Flight/dp/B004EKMR30)
It looks for all purposes to be the same design as the Odyssey. The laptop stand works great, no issues with the tray sliding out the back. My only complaint is the foam is a little too soft and it's getting ripped up a bit on the cover for the headphone jack. The NI case does have a nice feature which is heavy duty velcro straps around the laptop tray so you can just strap your laptop inside the case for transport and not need to bring a 2nd bag.
Odyssey cases are pretty much industry standard though, I doubt you would be unhappy with it.
This one is the king, although unfortunately not collapsible. Has a nice tray and flat legs that slip under your laptop.
I have this and it's good in the house but it's a pain in the arse to take to clubs because it doesn't fold up and takes about 5 minutes to put together. Anyone know of any cheap folding stands as the price for something like the stanton uberstand is ridiculous.
Here are some.
