Hello!

Got an MPC Live mk1 and the machine itself is no problem, I've been using MPC1000 and S5000 so most things are familiar.

But I find the software a bit strange, I've tried installing plugins included (available for my MPC at Akaipro.com) one at a time but functionality seems very random:
- The Noise: No problem, funny machine
- The 809: No sound is triggered, if I play the pad it's silent, if I play on the software UI I get sound but I can't use it in a project since they are not triggered.
- Hybrid: Crashes the whole software immidiately after insertion. The MPC Hardware needs to be restarted to reconnect to the computer also.

What's going on here? Seems very strange that the included plugins have these very different and erratic functionality.

I'm on macOS Sierra, latest MPC software and firmware; 2.8.
