Hi, is there a way to export the individual sounds and their settings (tuning/filtering/etc.) used in a program so that I can control them in Ableton/Push?

I know that when I save the project in the MPC it saves the samples, but this method does not save the settings, etc. used. Retrieving their settings would require opening the xpj file in the MPC.

Exporting to ALS saves the sequencing/midi of the individual sounds--this I have covered. Exporting as an audio (stem) is not what I need here.

Please let me know if this is possible, thanks!

I guess that could work, but I really wanted to fully use Ableton as my finisher.

Starting the idea in MPC Live 2 (stand-alone) and move into Ableton when I am at the studio.

Filter sweep and stuff aren't going to translate to Ableton Live settings... if you're looking to do the polishing up in Live you're probably better off doing it in the DAW and just leave that kind of stuff out while working on the MPC. You can still do it on the MPC, but disable FX so that you're not doubling up on filters and fx.
