ok i seriously need help with this. MPC REN/ Midi Keyboard

im so confused. manual doesnt reference this. ive sat with it a few days trying to figure it out but i cant.
what i am trying to do is get the plethora of premade instruments/synths/ pianos i have in logic pro x to record into my mpc software. i cannot use it as a plugin within logic x because it is buggy as hell and resets every 5 secs or so. is this possible? this may be insanely stupid but the only way ive tried to do it thus far is route the midi ports to the mpc within the software, and trigger the sounds with my controller in logic pro x. of course this doesnt work. does anyone have a solution?

i would think itd be similiar to having an external keyboard or synth minus the fact that its midi. but is there anyway to pull these instruments up within the software? are they supposed to be showing up?

This might help

You can't "sample" midi at all. You can only "sample" audio. There is no audio data to "sample" in midi.

you're trying to sample midi?

can't you just use those plugins that you're using in logic, and use them inside the mpc software? what do you mean "pre made" instruments

Exactly, if you aren't trying to "sample audio" from Logic into the Ren, like the video I posted describes, start up a plugin track in the Ren software and link it to one the VSTs that you want to use. Then, export the audio into Logic to mix it, if you want.

i think that may be the problem. none of the vsts are showing up. there not in the vst folder within logic. mad confusing. i never said i was trying to sample midi. i said im trying to get access to the instruments within logic in my mpc software.

i clearly referenced midi 6 times in my first two posts so why you would recommend an audio sample video is beyond me.

go into MPC preferences, in the plugins folders, find your AU and check that box off, pretty sure logic uses all AU plugins, re-scan them in your mpcsoftware
