height adjustable bongo stand

Hello. I'm looking for a good bongo stand that's height adjustable. I'm a seated player, and I want to be able to have a conga between my legs, and my Matador bongos on a stand behind the congas, but I'd like a stand that is adjustable so that I could also extend it and play it standing up. I can't find a lot of information about that, so can somebody tell me which stands fit this description? Is the LP camlock stand height adjustable? Is the Matador stand the only one that will fit them? I've never played with stands before, so you'll have to forgive my complete ignorance on the topic. I've always just played either congas alone, or bongos alone, but I'm looking to branch out and start a multi-percussion setup. Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your reply. The problem with that is that 30 inches is not tall enough to play them while standing. So maybe I should rephrase my question: do pretty much all of the bongo stands for standing-up players adjust low enough to be able to use them while seated? (Not between the legs, but just above the level of congas played on the floor.)

Great! Thanks!

EDIT: I went out this evening and bought the LP Camlock bongo stand, and it seems to be exactly what I was looking for. Being accustomed to playing bongos between my knees, it now feels a bit strange to have them on a stand, higher up and at a different angle, but I'll get used to it quickly. Thanks again for the info!
