MPC ONE 2.8 : record multiple midi tracks

Hi,

I have connected my expanders and master keyboard to a usb hub plugged into the MPC.

Everything is working fine, it is nice to finally get rid of a dying midi patchbay from yesterday !

But now there is something I would like to do and I wonder if it is possible : my keyboard is a Novation SL MK III, which is able to control multiple gears with midi or USB. I have a profile for each of my synths, and with the right setup on the MPC tracks, each track is working with the right midi channel.

But if I want to play and record midi stuff with an instrument using a certain midi channel, I have to select it on the keyboard and arm the corresponding track. Not very convenient, as I have to select/arm another track everytime I select a different instrument.

Is there a way to select multiple midi tracks and play/record events coming from different channels at the same time, with the MPC "routing" the datas on the corresponding track depending on the midi channel

I have not been able to find informations about that so far.

Thanks for any kind of help

Regards

Thanks for your reply !

It allowed me to realize I had a look at the manual found here https://www.mpc-tutor.com/akai-mpc-manuals/ and it is outdated, neither covering the MPC ONE nor the latest OS !

So I downloaded the latest available from Akai website and will read it intensively !

It's also an old article that hasn't been updated in over two years... I wonder if Tutor ever considered keeping it up to date or if it was intended to capture a moment in time. I can see how the URL link makes it seem a bit confusing.
