i doubt it.

it's kinda useless.

it would take away from the performance of other things i would think. i vote no.

i vote no too, it's not for porn. only thing i would suggest is different color backgrounds. it's well well well worth the money but expensive enough as it is

I would say a blue backlight would be dope, but thats about it. Theres no need for color.

I think a well-considered use of color could make the screen more readable at a glance for a performance situation.

However, it's pretty low on my list of priorities. Way below, say, a bunch of new/better effects.

i say either take it back to the 60 with the black background with the white/blue text. or bring it to the 2000xl with the white light.

i think the whole idea of mpcs is to get away from using your eyes to make beats, and to start using your ears. there are loads of computer programs out there that look lovely, and you can colour code shit, but at the end of the day if you have to do that, your ears don't work properly.
