Honestly, it sounds like you have a break in the power cord. I had this
very same problem with my drumstation, it seemd like every time i
touched a knob, pressed a button, or was just using it, BAM, in the
middle of recording, it would turn off and then back on again so fast I
never had time to figure it out what the problem was. turned out i had a
break in the power cable that would intermittently short when it felt
like it..Check that first, and also if it has a barrel connector going
into the machine, check that too.. Some of those barrel power jacks get
brittle over time and begin to have contact problems. Good luck.
