It seemed like a faulty/dirty switch. Then I read a post about the same issue. Now I use the front button to toggle my E-Mu off first and then turn it off from the back.

I have the same "faulty/dirty switch" issue. Good to know, thanks Steve!

Usually I just left the all my synths on (including MP7), and turn
on/off the power strip in my rack. That was actually my biggest
improvement in the studio - reducing the boot-up time...

Nicko - merci pour votre explication! Il peut être très utile pour
tous les abonnés de la liste.
