Hi,
Just got the new akai mpc live and noticed straight way when unpackaging that the glue tap on the back was a bit loose, after unwrapping noticed it was quite dusty, etc - them item looks fine, but not pristine has when you wrap any other hardware (ableton push, new soundcard, etc); So, contacted the dealer about it, asking if this is bstock, the answer was:
"I have run this past our returns department and absolutely not a returned product, these units have come direct from Akai (In-Music) and straight out to yourself and not touched by anybody here other than the warehouse staff who picked it and shipped it."
I hope this is not a dodgy akai mpc live that was sent back by a different customer. Is there a way to check?
I read some reports about customers who had faulty mpc live, stated that even after sending back and getting a new one the problem remained the same; So, it seems that it's hardware related?
I only tested for a few minutes after work and just want to make sure if something's wrong I can identify it as soon as possible.
I remember seeing the OS version 2.00 and there's also a `surface version` that was 1.9.x or something (I'll update this later). So, there's two versions, the firmware and the surface... ?!
Thanks!
