Like all audio interfaces must set to 44.1 and turn on and connect with USB BEFORE you power on your Force. I will try later with MPC Live. :nod: :worthy:


Ok this is promising after 4 years :-D

I was really wanting this mixer to work because it sounds amazing and the features are vast. Oh well, I guess I'll be going with the ugly Tascam Model 12.

Error: 44100 may not be a supported sample rate on the external device. Code: -22


Did you get the Tascam Model 12?
Because mine is not working with MPC Key 37 on 3.4.1...

I've managed to solve the issue. For those with problems with Audio Devices not working or behaving oddly FIRST TRY A GOOD QUALITY USB CABLE

I've tried three different cables with the first two of them not working. Those were totally new cables but for some reason the USB cable makes a HUGE difference with the compatibility of class compliant Audio Device.

I hope this helps to everyone reporting strange behavior with their devices and MPC 3.4.1

UGREEN was the brand of the cable that solve my problem.

The Q5/6/7 is out now! I think these will connect directly to the MPC and/or FORCE.

They claim to be class compliant…you will probably need to by a USB-C to USB-A adapter on the Force or older MPC.

But can their sample rates be to set to 44.1k? I don’t think the old models could.
