Hello everyone !

Two quick questions about MIDI.
(Sorry for my questions, which are probably quite simple, but following an accident two years ago, I still have a lot of trouble reading and searching the internet).

First question :

I create my melodies on my computer and ACID Pro, then I export them as MIDI to load them onto the MPC.

As you can see in the photo, I export a 5.1-beat file.

When I load it onto the MPC, it creates a track of... 112 beats ! :Sigh:

Being familiar with ACID Pro, I assume this problem is with this software because it very often has problems (a software that is also permanently abandoned).

Could this be due to something other than ACID ?

Second question:

I'm adding several MIDI devices.

I first added my MC303, which I then set to sync time.
I generally still have problems with this device (which never liked being a slave), but it seems to be working very well.
However, I then want to add my NOVATION K-STATION, but I can't figure out how to configure it on the MPC so that the MIDI tracks I imported into it use the K-STATION's sounds.

I imagine this should be fairly simple to do, but as I mentioned at the beginning of the message, I'm having a lot of trouble reading and searching for answers online.

Thank you in advance for your answers. :worthy:
