Problem with MPC live 3 outputs in Fender Studio

[Mudzix]

Hi everyone,


I’m having an issue using my Akai MPC Live 3 with Fender Studio Pro on macOS. When I select the MPC Live 3 as my audio device, Fender Studio Pro only shows 6 hardware outputs, even though the MPC should provide many more USB audio channels.


The strange thing is that everything works correctly in Logic Pro — Logic can see and use all the available MPC USB outputs without any problem. I also tried creating an Aggregate Device with my audio interface, but Fender Studio Pro still only shows the same limited number of outputs.


Has anyone experienced a similar problem with the MPC Live 3 and Fender Studio Pro/Studio One? If so, were you able to solve it or find a workaround?


Thanks!

Just to make sure: Did you use the mixer pane? The I/O button on the far left? Probably so, but better stating the obvious than leaving it out.

It should work right out of the box, Fender Studio Pro accepts class compliant devices.

Yes I did . I can see only 6 outputs there which are coming from a hardware. It seems like Fender Can see only hardware outputs coming from MPC but I have it as a Vst in controller modę and I should have many more

Mac or PC? And did you install the drivers? Class compliance may cover only the hardware I/O, not the virtual I/O.

Then there's a chance that you have to use them just like you do with multi-channel VSTs: with your track created, go to the mixer again, but this time open the instrument rack, click on the little arrow next to the instrument and choose "expand" from the menu. In the list that now is shown select the outputs you're interested in. See attached screenshot for an example with another VST.

Sorry for being so vague, I don't have an MPC Live 3, but the principle in Studio Pro is always the same, so I hope it helps.
