Carol & Stephenm52 (hope you didn't jump the gun and order it for your MPP already! ), I don't recommend the CompuShade for the MusicPad Pro. I tested the CompuShade on my MPP+ outdoors and unfortunately saw very little (if any) improvement. That said, I think visibility outdoors (without CompUshade) on the MPP+ is far better than the Tyros2 screen and quite acceptable (to my eyes) when viewed in the shade. I suspect the reason is that the MPP+ includes an anti-glare glass surface whereas the T2 screen is highly reflective (like a mirror).

Al, unfortunately not with the polarized sunglasses I tried it with viewing my Tyros2's screen, as the polarization produces a modled artifact appearance on the screen.

Diki, I agree. As I prefaced in my original post, I always perform in the shade, but screen visibility even outdoors in the SHADE is compromised from surrounding ambient daylight. This is where the CompUShade offers 'some' improvement, and the introduction by keyboard manufacturers of an improved LCD screen viewable both OUTDOORS and INDOORS would be greatly appreciated.
