I believe the MPC is only compatible with the PC port connections for USB, but it's been a while since I had it connected. What that means is that if you need to connect to the device via USB, then you'll either need to have the Computer connected via DIN ports or have parallel setups where you change which device is connected to the PC port and load a different setup from the save menu. This is why we include 3 User templates in the save menu.

It is always another option to connect to the MPC via DIN cable connection, and keep the PC port always connected to the computer.

In my old setup I use a USB port host switch box where I can connect two USB host port cables and this box goes to the MIDI router/switch where all the synths are connected. I can use a switch on the USB port host switch box to decide which device (PC, MPC) is now the main DAW. That's exactly what I'm looking for for the MRCC. But since it only has one dedicated PC host port, I'm unsure how to solve this without this box (attachement)

Any ideas or solutions or is it possible to add such a feature?
thx

If you still have that splitter, it may be worth testing it out, but I can't say whether it would work or not as I'm unfamiliar with the device. May be worth a try.
The RJ45 port on the MRCC isn't an ethernet port, it just uses the same plug. There's not a way to utilize RTP with the MRCC.
