Post your views and questions about the Akai MPC2500

Im looking at possibly getting one of the newer MPC's. I am visually imparied, so the green screen would be impossible to work with. I have seen what looks like a blue and BLACK screen, and Red and BLACK. Is there a Blue and WHITE one for the 2500 or the 1000?

I can read the 5k's screen from several feet away, but it has no JJos.
Spending extra loot on features you dont want, and losing things you do, just to get a usable screen isnt cool.

Either a LCD or Backlight replacement is fine.. Whatever will get the words to show up white with Blue background.

Slide me some info, links, or whatever ya got.

Yeah THATS more like what im looking for. I noticed that their red one has black lettering though. I think the blue one at VST has black lettering, not white.

If there are other color lcd's with white letters/graphics, let me know.

Thank you to EVERYONE who replied. I did use the search and was looking for something like the link posted, but nothing had pics of the screen.

This is EXACTLY what im looking for. Even though I dont really like the color blue, eye fatigue would be a MONSTER on the regular screen for me. It would probably even get in the way of my desire to make music.

This definately has me more comfortable with choosing the 2500. I wonder if they have something similar for the 60 and 3k. I will have to look into that.

Thanks again EVERYONE
