Hello everyone,
I own the MPC Live mk1. Are there any options for the power button? I would like for example to press and hold for on/off so that it doesn’t accidentally turn on/off when I carry it in my backpack

Thats the purpose of the "Finger Touch Start"., So It doesn't stay powered on when pressed by mistake

If you turn it on and don't do anything else it will shut off after 30 seconds or so. If you turn it off and you did something it will ask if you want to turn off or save or something like that. No need for a different button.
