Hi @ all,
I‘m Andy from Gemany. I have a small question:

my brand new Akai MPC X SE is making a short klick noise while power on and off. Everything works fine on it - just the klicking noise while power on and off .

What do you think about it ? Is this a Problem ? It works fine. But my X ( older Version) doesn‘t do so….
Maybe the SE is just klicking- but maybe it is not dangerous … or is it normaly?

What do you think about it ?
Thank you
Andy

I don't have X SE (yet) so i will guess, the DC power socket is connected stright to the carrier pcb board, there are a lot of relays inside that can trigger when voltage are applied, maybe one of these relays is flawed and loud, it can be nothing but if i were You i will call for warranty and exchange - just in case :)
