My arranger module has a 2.25”X3.25” screen. It’s getting more difficult to read the display. I was able to mount a 5’X7” flexible magnifier on the machine, but it distorted the display images. Anyone have any ideas about what’s available that could help me remedy this sight dilemma? Thanks.
Ciao,
Jerry

Reading glasses may help... or an external video monitor..

Fran, I do wear glasses on the gig, and I do use a monitor. I was trying to lose the monitor and extra case, stand and cables etc.

Ciao, not sure what setup you have, but maybe changing to Varranger on a 360 laptop - that you can remove or foldover the keyboard would do the job better. Less wires, just a USB, and it would replay the module you already have, with a bigger screem.

Hello, Jerry T. Could it be you have cataracts. I had that problem not too long ago and didn't even realize it till I had my eyes checked. Had them removed from both eyes w/ great results. Jerry B.

Jerry, what are you up too these days? Did you find a solution for you eyes or a plug in monitor for you keyboard etc?? Please let us know, as we all have failing eyesight and may need the same solution in the near future.
