Greetings all!! This has been my main unit for 1y and 3 months and I've loved every minute of it. My issue is the unit powers up but there is no display. Tried to get in touch with Akai support but of course they're closed on weekends. If anyone has a solution or reset recommendation, all help is welcome, thanks in advance.

Try turning it off, unplug it from the wall, remove any sd card. usb flash, usb cable, or internal hard drive connected to the device. Then plug it back into the wall and power it on. Hopes that work.

If the display screen is no longer powering on when you turn on your MPC, then you've got a critical hardware failure - sorry. Akai's standard warranty is 1 year. Did you buy it from a vendor that extends warranties? You'll need to send it in for service, I'm afraid.
