got my used mpcx today - got it used for 500€, which is awesome, i think.
lets see if my musclememory can handle 2 devices (have a one + too).

i´m testing the x right now and am wondering, if the jumping behavior of the qlink displays is normal.
when i modify params with the knob, the text gets bigger and it jumps between the text representation and some progressbar back and forth.

how is it on your devices?

Text bigger sometimes, that happened to me a few times, I downloaded firmware via usb (NOT wifi) and that one cleared up for me.

Also going from text to progress bar is normal, text because that's what your editing, progress bar shows the value of what your editing.
