Anyone using an ANTI GLARE MATTE protective film on their KB Display?
I sometimes have a problem with ceiling lighting on gigs that is directly above me glaring off the shiny display screen making viewing difficult at certain angles.... I was wondering if a Matte Anti-glare cover would be a solution.......just like some use on cell phones , tablets etc?.....any ideas?....and if so which brand?

Tech Amor Matte

Took a shot and bought one of these I'll cut it to fit,...
hope it works ...if not I throw it out the window lol..

I ordered one Donnie. We will both throw it out the window, but the reviews tell me otherwise.

Thanks
Bernie

I've been using a screen protector on my PA500 for about 2 years. Got it for a buck at the Dollar Tree.

Very good protection for my iPad. I have a case but need it nekid when on my holder.

Very easy to install, and is anti-glare but transparent. Since two came in the package, I cut the second to fit my Surface 2 Pro, which is a great tablet.

UPDATE:....... I received the Tech Armor anti glare protector.......as it's made for an iPad, I had to try to cut it to fit the size of the
S-950 display which is much smaller...that was easy......But, trying to put this stuff on with out bubbles or smears, etc, was a total disaster. confused2 I got so frustrated after 3x trying to do it I just ended up crumbling it up and throwing it in the garbage mad Nuff Said!!

SECOND UPDATE:....As per Gary's instruction to alleviate my KB
angle view problem from being a very "low sitter" I went to Lowes and bought two rubber door stops, & a package of plastic lock ties. Got home, cut 2 holes in the sides of each door stop and ties them to both tier bars of my Ultimate support IQ2000 X Stand,...now I have a 2 inch rise in the rear of the S-950 giving me a better viewing display angle. I will take it on a test drive on stage during today's performance show and report back....to be continued....... keys

I'd like to know how the Door-Stop trick works out for you. For my PSR-900 which I keep in Boston (800 miles from me and my Tyros5 - for family visits), I used to find an old "two-by-four" piece of wood to raise the back of the keyboard up off the stand a bit - the door stop method looks like a much better way to do this! I'll probably buy 2 door stops and bring them up for my Christmas visit!

Thanks DNJ/Gary for this idea!
-Jim
