Any solutions for fitting big controllers in DJ booths?

So I just received my DJTT VCI-400 in the mail and am learning my way around it. The first thing I realized though was that this thing is not going to fit in the booth of any club that I work in. I'm spinning 7 nights/wk in Manhattan in large clubs and every single one of them is geared for Serato use where all space is used by the turntables & mixer. I can usually manage to fit the VCI-100 on top of the turntables with covers on them (this is even tricky because turntable covers have a bubble for the arm), or I can fit it on the CDJ stands but that's not going to cut it for the huge VCI-400. I was wondering if anyone had come up with ideas or solutions for fitting larger controllers in booths without any table space.

you could always get two cheap laptop stands and place it over the turntable and mixer, or just go for a K2 or X1 and use the house mixer.

you may want to check out the magma dj controller stand. it will allow your controller sit on top of the standard dj setup.

What bhagatriks said. I'm going to be getting a Magma stand myself.

This is the best deal on it: http://www.djdeals.com/magmaCONTROLSTAND.htm

that's a cool stand although with the laptop attached it is a huge shield between the dj and the audiance, but when someone makes an easily portable fold up one they will make a mint.

It has adjustable height, but agreed, a foldable version of this would be clutch.
