I would like to send a signal in MPC live II through 1/2 and at the same time send the same signal through 3/4 plus a metronome. Possible? Thanks for the response.

Yep. Use 3/4 to PA and 1/2 as HP out with single extension cable. You can play to a click with minimal effort with this arrangement. The only thing you sacrifice 1 send 1 return.

You need a mixer.


So it's really possible..


Yes, it is possible. I overstated the problem. If you are using the returns for signal processing, and if you expect to have that in both sets of outputs, it's tricky, because you have to duplicate the processing in the returns for each set of outputs. If however you're happy to have an unprocessed output in your second mix, which I assume is going to be a monitor mix for you, then it is quite possible.

So, my bad.
