Roland XP-30 / XP-50 (Super Enhanced Black) LUX PMVA LED Display !

Description: Roland XP-30 / XP-50 Custom PMVA LED Display ! PASSIVE MATRIX VERTICAL ALIGNMENT (Super Enhanced Black) Amber, White and Blue Available ! Plug N Play in every XP-30 / XP-50. Amazing Custom PMVA Super Black Display ! Designed and built specifically for the Roland XP. This display was designed from scratch to perfectly compliment the Roland with ZERO design compromises. In keeping with my shop philosophy, I wanted to design a custom 'LUX' upgrade, not only operationally correct, but also visually beautiful. A perfect match for the XP control surface. This display has a number of unique design features. Technical specs are as follows. 1. PMVA ( Super Enhanced Black ) LCD Panel ! The performance of this Passive Matrix Vertical Alignment display, completely blows away any standard Twisted Nematic type display. Contrast ratio is an amazing 1000:1 Response time is super fast with NO ghosting ! PMVA is visually indistinguishable from OLED ! 2. Custom Optimised Metal Bezel ! Bezel width and height have been specified to match the display viewing area precisely. The metal bezel is exactly 0.5mm the whole way around. This leaves a perfect black border framing the 40x2 characters. Combined with the superb PMVA black background / contrast performance, the display looks stunning ! 3. Optimised 6 o'clock Keyboard Viewing angle ! Correct 6 o'clock viewing angle required for keyboard use. The viewing angle has been set during manufacture, optimised precisely for the way the XP is used. User seated/standing, keyboard view. When the display is adjusted, its contrast and viewing angles behave in a very precise way. 4. Fully Adjustable Contrast Control ! The display will ship complete with 2 x attached potentiometers, to set up contrast and backlight brightness. (see pictures) These XP keyboards shipped from the factory with NO contrast adjustment, so this feature is necessary to allow adjustment on the PMVA display. After the display is installed and switched on, the backlight trimmer is tucked inside out of the way, the contrast knob can be mounted somewhere 'or' set up then tucked inside. Its not necessary to drill holes. The display viewing angles are flexible enough, the contrast can be set up, then left alone. 5. Custom LED Backlight design ! Designing a long, thin LED backlight with an even distribution of light, no dead spots / light spots, required a NEW backlight design. A standard 40x2 display has LED's mounted at each end, resulting in uneven light, LED lightspot at each end, and a dead area in the middle. This special PMVA display has a special backlight design. Multiple LED's are spaced around the bezel creating a perfectly even backlight. The majority of work designing this display was spent perfecting the backlight design. The end result is a display with perfect even light side to side with no deadspots or lightspots. Each character 1-40 has identical brightness.The PMVA panel is completely black corner to corner, OLED like in appearance. The look of the display is completely flawless ! There are ZERO visual imperfections ! 6. Amber, White or Blue LED Backlight ! There are 3 choices of backlight. Each one uses specific LED's that colour. There are NO colour filters or trickery of any kind. The LED's in the backlight are actual Amber, White or Blue LED's. The performance of all 3 displays is spectacular due to the special PMVA panel and custom backlight. The look, response, performance of each display is equally exceptional, therefore, colour choice should be based only on what 'you' think looks best. 7. Fully Adjustable Backlight Brightness ! To suit every possible studio environment, I build and ship each display fully adjustable to control backlight brightness. This is used to set the display up perfectly for the light conditions in your studio. If you use the display in a brightly lit room, the backlight can be set slightly higher, if your studio is dark, it can be dialed in lower for a better look. Shipping the display adjustable is essential. Once the brightness is set up, the potentiometer is tucked inside. Its meant to be set once. Then forgotten. The performance of this display is spectacular ! Once installed and set up properly, it looks Amazing ! PMVA is visually indistinguishable from OLED, but without the initialization problems associated with OLED. Response is instant with ZERO ghosting. NO tech skills are required ! NO Soldering is required ! NO Modifications are required ! NO Expensive Service Centre Fees ! The installation process to install this special PMVA display is completely straightforward. The display has been carefully designed to bolt in and connect the exact same way as the old LCD. The display contrast is adjustable, a feature NOT previously possible on the XP. After its bolted in and switched on, its completely integrated in the XP. This display is NOT a modification, its a custom like for like, drop in replacement for the old standard optrex display. All dimensions are 100% identical. (see pictures) **Hi-Res pics / video of each colour and viewing angle, mounted in various instruments can be viewed using the link below.
