I have allready posted this on the Torso Electronics Discort-Server, but so far could not solve the problem.

Has anyone here controlled a MPC (One) via Torso-T1? I have tryed to work through the "6 Steps To Creating A Drum Beat." from the manuall, but unfortunatly I cannot trigger a selected Drum-Kit, as hoped and expected. There are MIDI signals goint into the MPC and when I chosse a Synth-PlugIn it works pefectly well.

Supposedly it is possible to select the sample/pads on the MPC One using Pitch note on the Torso T-1, either per ear oder per eye, which unfortunatly does not work.

Has anyone got an idea, what might be the problem and if and how this might work?

Did you try notes in the C1 octave? Since I am not near my machine right now, there should be an option to change the drum map internally to „C1 chromatic“. After that, triggering should not be a problem, especially since it works with other programs.

Yes, I tried it via EDIT PAD MIDI NOTE MAP but there ist no option to select anything with exception of PAD and MIDI NOTE. Everything else (Chromatic C1; Cromatic C2; Classic MPC) is grayed out.
