Does anyone else have the screen issue I have....where you turn the contrast knob to the perfect setting, but then either later on, or after you've turned the machine off and back on down the line, you have to change it again....and later on....again......etc?

???

Before my mpc5k changes contrast or go completely white, right as I'm viewing it and it also flicker a little. It has stop for awhile now. It has not done it for over a month now. I hope it holds up like my roland mc909. Both machines has similar display and I had the mc909 for many years with no problems.

I'm really glad this thread came up because I thought it was me.

when my MPC arrived about two weeks ago... i left it on for about 20 mins. When I came back to it, the whole screen was white!

I left it on to see if it would do it again, but it never happened...

Even though the blue tint is cool. I don't trust it. I rather seen the screen more in the way the 4k is displayed.
