Computer monitor mounting options for Control 24

I have a Control 24 mounted inside a desk and am looking for a way to integrate my Apple 23" monitor using some sort of arm extension. I want it to attach to the top of the desk and allow me to float the monitor forward and down, so it's suspended abut 8" above the bottom section of the Control 24 and about 8 - 10" forward from the back section. Putting it on top of the meter bridge has caused too much eye strain and neck craning.

Thanks in advance,

-R

I use this and love it, great extension, great quality and total adjustability. I can see the monitor and my meters at the same time which is nice, the lcd hovers right over my console and I can swing it out of the way easily if I need to reach a knob in the back of the center section, but you should think about how you are going to mount it. This is desk mount and a wall mount arm is sometimes necessary if you don't have a desk corner for it to grab onto. I used the drilled hole mount in the kit because my desk has edging that the clamp wouldn't fit over. Watch the video at the bottom of the page for an idea of how it mounts.

Yeah, that one looks great, but I'm not sure it could get the monitor low enough. I need to have it actually hang down lower than the base mounting position.
