Accidentally powered off/on OT very quickly

Elektron Gear Octatrack
1

i am pretty sure this is a non issue but last night I proceeded to power off my OT but my finger slipped on the power button and the unit powered off for a very split second and came right back on all in one motion… the screen didn’t even power off completely before it powered on again…

any reason I should worry about my OT? is this harmful? it’s not the first time it has happened in Elektron gear (the power switches are somewhat stiff)…

anyway, thanks for any insight

Just don’t do it all the time. It should be fine. Bad: powering off while OT is writing to card.

Btw. About a year ago a dj setting up his cd players accidentally yanked out my PSU during my show. Silence. 10sec while i rebooted the OT. Some hate from the danceflor. Pressed play and the party was back on track, if not exactly where the song was interrupted.
