I'm trying to record guitar using the Sampler through a mic, and I'm getting nasty feedback via my desktop monitors unless I turn monitoring off, which makes sense because, well, physics.
But if I do this, I don't get the metronome and I can't hear what the MPC Live is hearing. My only option without involving external gear is to literally unplug my monitors from the back. I've poked around a ton and my sense is that I'll either need to A) run the output through a mixer first or B) find a way to route the headphones to a different output (along with the metronome). I see the option to route the headphones to Output 3/4, but I don't see a way to use that with the Sampler.
Ideally there'd be a separate key command where I could toggle rapidly between my external monitors and the headphone output.
Also is there a way to delete a sequence? I'm going through the Bible and have a bunch of sequences that are empty and taking up space. I can clear them, remove bars, etc. But I can't make the Sequence itself go away. I even looked through the desktop software and can't find a way to do this yet.
I really like the MPC Live and don't mind it's limitations -- just want to find an easy way where I can sit down at my desk, listen to a track on my monitors, pick up a guitar and play some stuff into the Sampler while hearing the guitar and metronome through headphones with the monitors muted, then hit a button or toggle and hear it all played back on my monitors.
