Question

Just got the Atom SQ and it's fantastic! Wanted to ask if it would be possible to add a power on/off feature? Perhaps pressing and holding the setup button for a few seconds would power down the Atom, and then pressing the setup button again would power it back on? I think this would be brilliant instead of having to plug/unplug the Atom all the time. Thanks for your time -Som

Answer 1

If you put your computer to sleep, the Atom SQ will also go to sleep about 30 seconds to a minute after the computer.

Other than that just pull the USB-C cable to power it off.

Answer 2

ditto on this request, I'm not always using Studio One on this machine and there's no value in having the thing blazing away when I'm not using it, unplugging and replugging the unit is a pain.

Answer 3

Hi.  I had the lights issue with my Atom pads when plugged directly to the motherboard.  Many motherboards will leave power thru usb to enable mobile phone charging while the pc is in a Stand-by mode.  My solution was to plug it/them into a pci-e usb card.   (N.b.- i had already added the PCI-E usb 3.0 card to my system due to the number of usb devices i use in my studio setup.)  It's more of a workaround than an actual solution per se.  

Answer 4

Unplugging is hell on ports... I leave mine plugged into a dock. Please fix :(

Answer 5

Mine does not go to sleep after 30 sec..  please add a way to turn this off
