So I have my x32 connected USB 2.0 to my MPC Key 61 via the X-Live card. I have then both set to 32 in/32 out. I have tried so many routing combinations but no matter what, the MPC only receives x32 input from Local 1-16 and can only send audio out to Card 1-16. 17-32 provides no signal either way.

I'm trying to set the Local 1-8 to be XLR ins that route to the MPC inputs 1-8 as Audio tracks 1-8 then have those MPC outputs be routed to the x32 Card 9-16 inputs for playback. This works fine. Then send my MPC drum outs to x32 Card 17-26 inputs, Keys stereo to x32 Card 27-28, then bass, strings, and synth to x32 Card 29, 30, and 31. This does not not work.

I can flip everything and have the music working on 1-16, but then the Audio out from x32 17-32 won't go into the MPC for some reason.

Right now, I have to route everything 1-16 both ways and jump between them by assigning x32 17-32 inputs to receive Card 1-16, but now I have recorded Audio playback tracks on 9-16 as well since I can't access 17-32.

Essentially, how can I access the x32s 17-32 channels on the MPC?

Any insight on this would be extremely appreciated.

Don't know exactly the way you wanna set it. I've never tested if you can use the faders with midi track to do automation. I use theme as 32 channel out of my program and audio tracks and can recall the position for each project since the faders are motorized.
