I'have a QY700 since a few years, and the idea is to use the younger brother as a sketchpad when not in thew studio... was the lesser QYs dubbed as "walkstations" twanty years ago? Trouble is that I'm well used to the one-acre, backlit screen of the QY700 ;) I'm ordering the front light for the Game Boy Advance, have already checked that - there is enough room to place the LED diffuser on top of the LCD panel - light will come from bottom margin of LCD, so possibliy "song" and "pattern" names will be less readable, whereas mixers cursors and step sequencer bars will full alight - no need to use optical clear glues or to tamper with the original display - alas, the Game Boy Advance display is a few millimeters smaller than the QY100/QY70 one, but can live with it - there are plenty of places where to solder the power wires fir the LED plate At present, I plan to have the front light always turned on, although the microcontoller solution using [SHIFT] [F3] is as clever as complex... More to come, I'll check in when I'll made the modification, the front light will take a month or so from China to Italy... viruses allowing ;) toggle quoted message Show quoted text On 05/02/20 15:37, squishy via Groups.Io wrote: I have agonised with this over the years. Now I just have a small gooseneck UBS powered lamp that illuminates the screen (from the OUTSIDE) and that is fine for me to see the screen BETTER in my lil' dark corner and I can turn off the main room lights and just have a few RGB LED strips on and its a nice cosy enviroment and i can now see the damn QY screen info :D On Wednesday, 5 February 2020, 00:51:12 CET, Eric <erichemingway@...> wrote: Some people connect an LED (on a flexible pole) to one of the midi ports. ? Also, there is a video on youtube about a sidelight mod using LEDs (requires soldering) BTW, QY70/QY100 with completed backlight mods come up on Ebay.com/Reverb.com from time to time, though they usually get purchased fairly quickly as they are pretty rare. ??The link you posted is a very good resource on how to do it if you are good with a soldering iron (and a bit daring). There was once a non-yamaha compatible backlit display but it has long since been discontinued... ?I don’t tecall the patt number, but you could probably google it. Lastly, some people have used gameboy backlights (or accessories) to light the screen. -- The Yamaha QY70 / Yamaha QY100 User Group? </g/YamahaQY70AndQY100>?- A forum for the best band in a box synthesizer/sequencers ever created on the planet earth.
