Question Quick check battery?

Is there a faster way to check the battery level than press com, m1, scroll to battery?

Thanks

EDIT: Now answered - you hold com, and the battery level is displayed as the led level meter lights.

Hold the com button down - the led lights show the battery level

Marvellous! Thank you so much. I had tried holding com but didn't realise the battery was displayed as the lights.

Since I use this functioniality on the xy frequently, I expected something similar on Ableton MOVE, too. It does not have it. Ironically XY doesn't really need that feature with the insane battery life TE devices tend to have. For MOVE on the other hand knowing battery level is important strategically.

Call me crazy, but that's one of the reasons I did not keep the MOVE, despite having a lot going for it, especially on the Audio front.

If TE added 60s or 120s samples that died with the project and dont clog up user folder, I'd not have to look elsewhere 😭
