I can Agree with Tutor.. There is a lot of features offered that are still not in sync with hardware and software.. It really can be a work flow kill! There are still some classic legacy MPC things are still missing, for whatever reason. I Often find my self trying to execute a function from the hardware, only to find out i can’t.. and vice versa with the software…
Example: Was trying to edit the midi note numbers on the pads to use a plugin more effectively, only to find out i can’t do that like i did on the MPC 2000xl. That seem to be something they felt not needed anymore.
Another Example: You can’t access the New Pitch Quantize function from the MPC studio/Ren.. You have to go to the software to access, unless you are using the Touch Screen MPC, then you will have access from the hardware.
Speaking of the Touch Screens.. One function that i kind of would like to see is an option for the Touch Screen Selection to Follow the Qlinks automatically On the Touch & Live..
So if you touch/select the filter cutoff on the touch screen to edit, the qlink knobs automatically go to that set of 4 qlinks, instead of having to constantly touch the QLink button for scrolling.. So annoying and real confusing! Would be a huge workflow improvement!
But, Ive been using the Software/Hardware like a legacy MPC, (Minus bells and whistles functions), and to that, I’m happy!!! Once i start diving into the extras, it gets frustrating..
Still, It could use a lot of improvements with the software & hardware integration!
