Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
If anyone in Canada has received this overlay, please let me know how you did it, or where to enlist/enroll in the program, mine is getting a bit scratched up in general use. If anyone has a link for Canada to register on, that would be appreciated. Kind regards, Graydon
Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
I got mine this morning, they look great! They say it will be another month or so though until they get more into the UK, so hang fire a bit.
Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
I'm in the US and waiting on mine. I ordered Sunday, and was hoping for Today. No dice.
How were yours shipped in the US?

Here it is. Maybe it looks different in other countries (beside the language...).

Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
If and when I do receive my FA-06 display overlay from Roland Canada, I will send anyone in Canada the fella I dealt with and who responded to my request. I can happily pass on the Roland contact via email I received a few weeks ago telling me that mine has been sent to my rural address. I should hopefully get it this coming week. Kind regards, Graydon

Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
Mine arrived today and they look great.
Question - Has anyone tried to remove the original covers / plates? My FA 08 was sent to me used and the clear screen window was severely abused with deep scratches / gouges. I see the new overlays come with a clear window, so I was wondering if it's possible to remove that entire panel before applying the new overlay?
Anyone?

Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
Got my today. They are looking quite well. If you like to remove the complete plate you should contact Myrk- he is selling real Faceplates here. I've ordered them for my FA-06 too. Anyhow for better Reading and a somehow scractprotection the original Roland-Covers are okay.Wmacky wrote:Mine arrived today and they look great.

Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
I would not remove the original plates. The new ones fit perfect inside the frames.
If applicable, you can use additional glue dots or stripes or better: removable fixogum glue like this one https://www.amazon.com/Marabu-Fixogum-R ... ds=fixogum.

Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
Contacted Roland Sweden and I just had to send my serial number so they could confirm it was sold through them, then I got my overlay two days later!
I think Finland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark share the same Roland Scandinavia office. So it should be ok in thoose countries too.

Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
I received my overlays from Roland today and yes, they do look great. It was more of an effort to get those little dots off (used the end of a sewing needle) to remove them and they fit in place. Nice work Roland ! the box arrived also free of charge. If anyone in Canada needs a link to order the panels, just PM me, happy to help out.

Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
Just wanted to say a BIG thanks to fa06roland for helping connect me with the right guy at Roland Canada. My plates arrived last week... they fit perfectly and look great.

Re: Free FA Overlays from Roland
My pleasure, the overlays will definitely protect from scratches, I think that two-sided tape would secure these new panels better than the little dots especially for those gigging and moving the keyboard around in a gig bag. Cheers ! Graydon
