2.2.2.1 firmware update cousing longer bootup time

It boots up fine, but I did notice the factory pprogressions a re not showing (ie House 1 and so on. Thank you for the 15 second tip because this is the first issue since getting the Live in Beta.

I used the "reset" under > menu > legal and the progressions came back . Backup first just in case because I did have any projects saved in standalone to loss.

Yeah I'm fairly certain some of the folks complaining about flaky sd cards and other issues (mainly on the FB groups) are seeing this issue with Progressions.

EDIT: I was searching online for this issue -+some glitching- as I got the same problem on my LIVE (2m 20s bootup time with a 8gb flash drive on exFAT) and I came across this:

Hey everybody,

I'm sorry if you're still having some difficulty with your MPCs! The Akai development team is aware of this behavior and is investigating what might be going on. I want to make it clear that this is not a hardware issue with the MPC X and Live and a limited number of users are experiencing this behavior. If an update or any new information becomes available, I will be updating the community accordingly. Thank you!

It seem like cloud777 contacted some dimwits who don't know much else than to give out a canned response of "send it in for repair". Evidently so, because he got back his X after the so called "repair" with the same issue. I think Nick D is a bit of a trusted source on this and I do hope that it's only a software issue

Hope AKAI be a respectable company and clean up their shit software... best case scenario is this is taking a long ass time because there's just too much of it.

Yeah, it's BS. The start up issue is intermittent with me - sometimes it takes up to 3 minutes and other times it's no longer than 20 seconds.

I did ask them what they did for the repair and they said they replaced the motherboard and added a heat sink

It still has the same issue, nothing changed

at least you got a new motherboard out of it

Makes me wonder if they did change it

Dam that's crazy

Akai needs to fast track this fix, why are we still dealing with this after all this time.
