New MPC Live 3 Turns On When Upright

This is the 2nd unit this happens with. The 1st would begin powering up when tilted back 45° or so. I returned it. The replacement, which I didn't bother to open yet, does the same but seems to require a full 90° tilt. When sitting the box on its back, fan on.

Does this happen with yours? Anyone able to replicate this?

Thanks

I will try to replicate this once I get home in a few hours. My Live 3 is fairly new as well - bought it brand new back in January (of this year), but I'm experiencing a panning issue that causes the sound to disappear once I pan the sound to the right, which is a shame

Thanks for checking!

You're welcome, but unfortunately for you, I wasn't able to replicate the malfunction. I tried both 45° and 90° angles.

You must be hitting the Power Button Everytime you set it up right lol

Kinda what I was wondering!

All good here, Live 3 reclines at 90, and stays off.

I thought a wire or something might be stuck behind the power button with the 1st one. But everything was in place when I opened the box.

I’m tempted to open this one to make sure it’s nothing stupid I’m overlooking.

Just thought, if it were on for some reason, but sleep, could I be waking it?
