You will be able to MIDI the MPC 2500 to the MPC Ren and Maschine and trigger their sounds from the MPC 2500. You will also be able to MIDI sync the MPC 2500 to both Maschine and the Ren.

Are they even selling the software separately?

Anyway, if you can use it with the MPC2500 at all it will be very limited.

If you have a Maschine and you're thinking of the Ren software. I'm not even sure where the 2500 comes in. It ain't going to get you better beats.
