Hello, nice to greet you.
First of all I apologize for my English, it is not very good.
I'm thinking of buying an MPC X to use on stage with my band, to use backing tracks (pre recorded wavs for example). As far as I know, it has several analog output channels, so I could use one for the metronome click for the drummer, two for the stereo synthesizers track, maybe one for bass, another for percussions and loops. My biggest question is how to use the MPC in a live situation. Is it possible to make a playlist? How should the songs be sorted? Can I play a "song" and have the option to end up in auto-pause?
I would be grateful if you could tell me about your experience in this regard. Or how you would proceed.
Thanks in advance.
