MPC Beats and Arcade by Output

I am very new to all of this... I just downloaded MPC Beats, and I was hoping that I could link Arcade by Output, but I can't figure it out so far. Has anyone done this successfully? I am using a mac, so I guess I could also just run Arcade through Garage Band... but would like to stick with Akai. I also have an MPC Live, so if nothing else, I thought about running a 3.5mm output from the headphone jack to dual 1/4 inch ins on the live, and just sampling what I make in Arcade on the Live. I bought my Live used, so I don't have the full MPC software (unless I somehow still get access to it... I am unaware). Thoughts?

Not sure about the main question but yes, you get the full version of the MPC software, just create an account on the akai website and register your MPC hardware. Your download link and activation code should be there under ' registered products'

Awesome! Thanks!

Arcade is available as a VST or AU plugin. When I opened garage band, and added a new midi instrument, Arcade was just waiting there to be assigned. In beats, I don't see any option to connect a plugin other than the usual MPC tube synth, electric and bass. I did see a youtube video by Matthew Stratton that showed that his purchased plugins were available. Just not sure why Arcade isn't showing up. As stated before, I am new with all of this, and I don't have any other purchased VSTs. Perhaps I need to link a folder in preferences somehow?
