Hi, does anyone know of a VST compatible sequencer that will allow my MPC to be the master?
I know reason lets you do this but the problem is i want to use my VST plug-ins.
thanks

I heard something about the latest version of Reason bein compatible with VST's, is this just a rumour? That'd be niceness.

It won't happen, the point of Reason is that it is completely self contained.

I'll mess around with Cubase later and let you know if i can make it the slave.

MPC as master, Ableton Live 5.2 as slave works nice.

if you just want to use vst instruments/effects with the mpc, you might like to try v-stack by steinberg, it's basically just a vst host, without all the extras cubase has. that way it should give you cpu an easier time.

hope this helps.
