LCD screen in music stand

[davidwaller]

It would be really good to have a decent sized LCD screen built into the fold down music stand on the 300 series. Mainly for reading scores in real time. The existing screen is very small and you have to look down to it which can give you a pain in the neck plus the score is tiny if you display more than two bars at a time. Complex chord symbols are particularly hard to read. If you are accompanying singers or leading a band you want to maintain level sight with them. I know I can plug in a seperate screen but I hate wires all over the place.

Just a suggestion for the CVP 409

Now your talkin' !!! And make it a touch screen!
I've been thinking this since I bought my 207.

It would be a little awkward if you had to juggle between printed sheet music (blocking the LCD) and changing settings. Heck, why not have 2 screens?

Hi

I have just bought a new laptop with a 15" screen, this has a built in TV and can be used as a monitor for Video In.
So I connected my CVP 209 video out, to the laptop's video monitor in socket.

Well, I always knew the cvp's video out was rubbish, as I found out when I connected it to my 28" TV but on the laptop it was just as bad. Why did Yamaha give us video out instead of S Video, RGB or even XVGA. I suppose it's because video is universal. Oh well, lets hope the cvp 3xx have better video out then the 209.

Roland has a large LCD touch screen in the music stand on their HPi-7. This would be very nice if Yamaha could do something similar.
