Send & Receive MIDI VIA USB

Since the 3.0.6 update can you send and receive midi VIA USB?

I want to put my Force as SLAVE & MPC Live 2 as MASTER. I am not seeing anything in the menus to send midi via USB like the MPC.

Yes. I do it all the time.

When you set up a channel, you can set it up as a MIDI channel, and it asks you where you want to send the MIDI including ports and USB devices.

And I use a USB MIDI controller on it all the time. I used the MIDI outbound to even autosample a keygroup from my JP-08.

So yes, MIDI in and out over USB works just fine.
