Have you ever used programs such as battery? I'm assuming you have.. The point some end users are trying to make is simple. We have programs,drum kits or chopped samples, that while we're in our daw, we simply want to sequence these using our mpc's pads,but using the daws sequencer at times. Sure it may not be your preferred method, but to others it may very well be.
For example, when using a hardware Mpc, this works no problem. All we're asking for is, to allow end users the ability to send midi over pads, the option to choose if we want to sequence using our daws sequencer, or the mpc.
The request is simple and straight forward, we're not asking for anything that isn't already possible in hardware mpcs, or need I say, better yet the competition, such as Maschine. The request has been sent to Akai for years, as I noticed it as soon as I brought my ren home many years ago and quickly contacted Akai tech support and they made mention of adding it in a future release.
There are different workflows for each end user, and sometimes using the daws sequencer is perfect sometimes using the mpc's is. The point is, the option to do so is all we're asking for.
Hope this clears it up, and many of us have many years of experience on mpc's, to which,some feel the shock once they realize the mpc software doesn't allow this. it should be an option, it's really a simple feature that would make alot of folks appreciate it.

Well known hip hop producer by the name of Swizz Beats in an interview mentioned how he came up with some of his idea's he told the interviewer he layered his drum programs with different sound modules, etc. This isn't exactly possible with the current Mpc software, in terms of realtime midi out of pads,and it should be..
Again not trying to beat a dead horse, but some of us use different methods to achieve our own sound.
Thanks for reading.
