However, I and quite a few others here, not only do but prefer this workflow. I love my Ren but let's be honest, the Ren's editing, FX and mixer capabilites and functionality pale in comparison to a DAW. I know the Ren isn't meant to be a DAW, which is exactly why I prefer to "seamlessly" incorporate it into my DAW workflow.
Thanks for the explanation.
It seems like the single track Essentials software plugin seems like a better fit for the way you want to work.
MPC Software is a multi-track sequencer, not really just a multi-timbral sound source.
It doesn't make sense to me, to have a mutli-track sequencer plugin, loaded up multiple times, and then to use it with only a single sound source in each instance, only using it as a sound source, not using any other features.
What is the point of even using MPC Software in that situation, if only using it as a single sound source, on multiple tracks, to be sequenced from the DAW, what advantages/differences is there between using MPC Software in that situation, and using some other sampler/instrument plugin inside the DAW?
If you are not using the MPC sequencer, editing, FX, mixer, etc. capabilities, what is the point of using it at all?
Obviously it can be done, as they are doing it with Essentials, it just doesn't make as much sense to me, when looking at the full multitrack version of the MPC Software plugin, and not sure it would make sense to most users.

Can't you already have 1 instance of the MPC plugin with tracks 1-4 assigned to corresponding DAW tracks?
