Next month my X will be 1 year old and I haven't spend as much time on it as i would like to but I can already see the printed text on the play, << and >> starting to fade. :Sigh:

I'm always pushing the buttons with my fingers and my nails are short. Is it only on my X or do you experience the same?? :hmmm:

See 4th post for pictures.

Yo Danoc whats up!!

The buttons on the MPC Live are different the one on the MPC X. The buttons on the live are made out of rubber but the ones on the X are made out of hard plastic and the text is printed on it.
