Georgie, does your configuration look anything like what's posted in this pic...or at least close to it?

If not, then it's wrong.

It's a MUST that your keyboard and/or your mpc's midi is routed through each other and comes to an end at the midi input of the presonus.

It's just not going to work if you're not using a midi cable coming from the keyboard going to either the mpc or the audiobox.

Then your brain needs to remember to configure the routing in the mpc to make sure it's feeding the same midi routing to go to the audiobox if that's what you're after.

Other than that, I can't help you because you're just not getting this thing son.

It is known that this stuff ain't for any and everybody. Maybe try something else that's more your speed.

Peace.

You 'aint cut out for this.

Go and sit in a corner with your gear and ask yourself what you can try next.

Im sure another bandwagon will be along soon.
