Hey, I recently downloaded the 'Electric Keys' 2.0 - MPC Instrument Expansion Pack’ & was wondering if someone would be able to help me how to make use of the instruments within this pack to play them with the actual keys instead of pads? If anyone is able to help out & to explain how this can be done, much appreciated!

The keys should be set as a master (global) controller as the default setting, so after loading and assigning an instrument to a keygroup track, you should be able to just play the keys.

Press the 'keyboard control' button on your MPC Key and make sure 'Internal Keyboard Routing' is set to global (or 'global and tracks').
