Hey all, first post here, slowly getting into the MPC workflow by using it alongside external synths and sequencers.
I really dig the sounds and UI for the new drum synth plugins and would love to integrate them into my workflow by using an external sequencer that has a few features the MPC ONE doesn't. So I was hoping I could send MIDI from an external 4 track sequencer to control these awesome new drum plugins but can't seem to get the MPC ONE configured properly to accept all the tracks. It seems to only affect the active track.
Is it possible to control multiple tracks live at the same time on the MPC ONE from external gear?
I've tried different MIDI ch for each, setting the note commands appropriately and even considering octave offsets (like C4=C2) based on different standards but nothing seems to work.
Ideally I could use the DrumSynth:Multi and somehow send 4-6 MIDI input signals to trigger those drums but if it would require 4 independent tracks that's cool too.
Happy music making,
