Controller mode: I want to see the desktop screen on my MPC

Let me explain: Sometimes I take my MPC-X with me to the living room and still need the power of a PC..
My surface Pro 3 is struggling to keep up and it's just ain't cutting it.

My Asus Rog G20 is a powerhouse but still needs a display.

Not possible
Only way is to connect your MPC via a loooong USB cable to your desktop , then setup a Remote Desktop connection to the Surface .

If you do not care about latency you can use Reaper DAW and launch MPC software as plugin on the Surface but as ReaMote running on the desktop CPU

Yeah I know, been thinking about the remote desktop thing for a while now.. but I actually wanted to eliminate the surface pro out of the equation..

Why did they make it possible on the Touch and not on the flagships.. Is it the lag of internal hardware or is it just driver related?

It’s the usb display thing that needs special drivers ,plus it introduces much cpu usage and lag .
I guess you use VSTs because the MPC Software is not cpu heavy .
