I appreciate you help.
Thanks in advance
While it's in standalone mode, your Mac shouldn't recognize it... because it's in
standalone mode.
While in standalone mode, run the audio out from your hardware synth into the quarter inch line in on your MPC. You obviously need to monitor your MPC through your studio monitors or a set of cans.
You can do this two ways: Hit the Main button, and on the lower left hit your Audio tab. Now you can record audio. Select the correct inputs, hit monitor, start record, and start jamming on your synth. Or, if you've got it hooked up via MIDI, make sure you also have a MIDI track created to trigger it.
Or, you can use the Auto-Sampler feature in the Sampler menu.
There's a metric shit ton of YouTube videos out there that you can watch how to do this - have you checked them out?
