MPC REN/STUDIO Midi out in DAW possible yet? june 2015

In order for the Ren to be a viable standalone daw it has to have an arrangement view like ableton, logic..... I don't know any producers who use Maschine or the Ren without opening a daw at some point during the process. If akai wants its users to work only in the mpc software then they need to make its interface along the lines of Propellerheads Reason software. Otherwise people will always have the need to reach for another Daw. It's 2015, song mode is over.

I like the simplicity of the mpc's song mode I guess because I owned/worked with the MPC60II from the day it was releasd. Hate putting a song together in Maschine.

I gotta say I disagree with a lot of this. I think the MPC workflow is great as it is, I LOVE song mode and hope it never changes. If sidechaining was introduced I would use MPC Renaissance in standalone mode almost exclusively.
The biggest strength of the MPC is the simplicity of its workflow, people need to stop and think before asking for audio tracks and extra DAW like features. If you want these extra features you should use a DAW, and Akai should make MPC integration in DAWs as seamless as possible to facilitate this. This dual sequencer plugin nonsense is a joke.

Here we go with the hating shit I said would happen. Please if you don't understand a feature request or care about it,keep it to yourself. I could give a damn about standalone workflow and song mode, but you won't see me hating on it.

I sold my MPC studio almost a year and a half ago because midi from the mpc studio wouldn't show up in my DAW like EVERY other plugin on the market... I swear this is a easy feature that should've been done a long time ago... I've been using logic pro strictly since, (especially with the updated MPC like drumming features) It's amazing that coming back to this forum and seeing that Akai still hasn't implemented audio tracks OR a way for way for the plugin version of the software to work well with a DAW that does have audio tracks.. No drag and drop, no nothing.... I was coming back to see if enough strides were made that would make me want to jump back on it.. But after seeing this.. I think i'll wait before taking the plunge...I'm sure they'll eventually get around to it, but by then I'm sure, but by then others would have caught up or made bigger strides...

Anything new??

Any hater trying to talk BULLSHIT about any of the AKAI SHAME 5 years after the maunch of these products and Midi and DAW integration as aFACTUAL FRAUD from AKAI!!??

2.0 updating for Studio/Ren availability date??


F.U.A.....AKAI P.O.S.
