Ive looked everywhere for this, and my question is..
Can it be done, i don't seem to be able to do this, is it possible ?

I want to make patterns in the Ren, and import them into my DAW as midi data, and do my arrangements in my DAW, as arranging my songs in the Ren plugin is far too difficult to do.
I have drums one track and synths on another track..
BUT !
I cannot trigger both at the same time..
I can either trigger all synth with all the note data or all drums..
So there seems to be a problem trying to separate the drums from the synth when triggering the midi notes from a DAW.

Apologies if this has already been covered but i searched and couldn't find anything,
I tried using multiple instances of the plugin.. THAT CANNOT BE DONE !

Is bouncing out audio the only solution ??
Because if it is, this is a seriously expensive doorstop !


Any help would be appreciated.

It doesn't work well at all! You have to download MPC Elements (FREE) which will allow you to open multiple instances of the mpc software in your daw. Although I couldn't do it from the Ren hardware I was able to get my Midi keyboard to trigger and record the midi from the Ren software in my daw(Cubase). The huge downside is that when using the midi keyboard is that the MPC software is not setup to receive notes like battery for instance, so it's hard to tell which sound in the mpc program will be triggered.
