Ya know how you can get a good quality glass screen protector for your Android or iPhone for a few bucks? Is there one which we can use on the MPC One/Live touch screens that isn't too pricey? I did an ebay search and well the cheapest I saw was like $25 and it was from Europe. Seems like we should be able to get one for $10 or so? Just need one that fits this size screen.

Anything that works on tablets will work on these screens. Just get something like this and cut it yourself.

These things rule. Got to the US in just a few days from beautiful old Ireland and works like a charm. Bonus points, they even give you a sticker and a cleaning cloth with a gold MPC pad logo on it.

Agreed. Also, 10% of his sales goes to STEP-BY-STEP (a Foundation for Children with Developmental Disabilities and their Families). That's a stand-up guy, right there. Two for $20 USD is worth it, IMHO.

I'm using a glass screen protector on the Force and I don't like how it makes the touch screen less responsive.

Is the Force without one any different than the MPC? Even without the protector the MPC gets kinda **** in Grid Mode. Sometimes I want to punch the thing after tapping on it 10 times trying to select a note in the grid. Seems to be okay everywhere else where the graphics are bigger. Even my stylus has trouble with Grid Mode with or without the glass on top..

So I got my mpc one for weeks now but I still didn't power it up, just an off topic question.

can we fully operate it without using the touch screen? im used to the 4k and the only reason I took the one over the live is the layout.
