OK i'm french and so desespered that i had to come on this forum. So respect my effort and help me pls!!!!

My config is very simple : an axiom 49 connected in midi IN to the MPC 5000 and a motif rack XS connected in midi OUT.

My problem is simple but it seems that the answer is not quite simple...
when i rec on the track 1 while playing on my axiom and moving the fader on the axiom assigned to CC n°7 (volume), everything is OK. When i play the track, i hear my notes and the volume change with it.
BUT when i rec on the track 2 doing the same (on another channel of course), my CC n°7 disappear on the track 1 (i see that on the step sequencer, no CC written). And even if i push rec without playing on my axiom, the CC is erased.

I read my manual comletely and don't find the answer. I'm tired with this translation too. If you can help me, ca serait sympa!!! thx

OK i listened to you and i tried to use the faders on the mpc.

here it is:
i created 2 programs with qlink assignations for 2 faders (CC 7 (volume) and CC 22).
I recorded on track 1 (midi 1A and program 1) moving the 2 faders and i recorded on track 2 (midi 2A and program 2) doing the same.

Then in the step edit, CC 22 is written on the 2 tracks but CC 7 is written only on track 2.

My MPC is mad, right??
