double check to make sure your not putting the piano on the bassline track. Also i know that happened to me once and it had something to do with the program number.

Buy a Motif and all your problems will dissapear.

have you assigned your midi channels on your keyboard to reflect those assigned in the MPC? IF not, that can be your problem.

ex. MPC track 1 = drums ( no midi)
MPC track 2 = bassline midi channel 2a / keyboard bassline = midi channel 2
MPC track 3 = piano midi channel 3a / keyboard piano = midi channel 3

and so on.

Im sure you can use up to 16 channels on your keyboard if i'm not mistaken. I am totally unfamiliar with your keyboard.
