I had the same problem. It was a little ways out of warranty. I contacted Akai and that replaced. It took about one and a half to two months to get the replacement.

I recommend that you contact Akai and tell them that you got a dud and that you need it replaced.

It could be something as simple as bad soldering or a bad connector on the power supply - internally that is. First thing I would do is open 'r up and follow the current path, and make sure everything fits snugly and soldering points are pristine. If not, dive in there and fix it. Losing the current for a short time explains your situation quite well.

Cheers,
