Powering on the MPC Live 2 (issue?)

So I just got a Live 2 retro in and when powering on I have to hold the power button down until the pads turn red and then release for it to power on and was wondering if anybody else's powered on the same way? On my Live 1 and X I just have to tap the power button once and it turns on, so I don't think this normal or some type of safeguard from accidental turn-ons. No other issues with the 2 once it's on, I'd just hate to have to return it with them being on back-order everywhere since December...

Yea that doesn't seem right. If it were me...I'd send it back for an Exchange

I agree with 40Beatz - you have a bum unit. I'm on my second Live (third if you count the Touch) and none of them have ever done that. Return it/exchange it, stat!!!

It actually went on the total fritz yesterday, would not shut off at all with the power button... So it's going back and hopefully new ones come along soon.
