Just curious. Sometimes i leave it on for hours and get paranoid about it "burning out" or something.

haha, longest was when he traveled through TSA. They turned it on when doing bomb checks on it, and when they returned it to me I didn't know they left it on. I planned on making shit on the 12 hour flight or something, but it was on till its batteries died. Quite a while :/ truly boring flight.

i left my 303 on for over a week. The memory card would erase banks c-d if you turned it off and on, i was working on a long seamless mixtape thing, so yeah a little over a week.

I leave my 505 and my mpc on for days even weeks!
Good is that the 505 doesn't lose it's it's place when sampling, I just hate when I lose certain fx settings.
And if the power goes out I lose everything I'm workin on in the mpc...got to save first.
My 4 track doesnt like to stay on to long...power supply gets very hot.

Don't forget that you can set it to sleep mode, which saves the battery...

i leave mine on forever because sometimes when it bugs out and freezes or even if i switch it off without it freezing, sometimes it does not power back on, then when I turn it off the blue light blinks real fast and looks like its broken, then I try to turn it on again and nothing, then i try and turn it on again and it works finally, so I just leave it on, I know the box pretty well and it likes to play tricks on me.

i left it on for a day and a half about a week ago. when i played patterns or samples it either didnt play them at all or played sounds i didnt even recognize. turned it off, turned it back on.... everything was fine.
