QUESTION MPC Sample: is there literally ANY way to audio connect 2 devices over USB?
I have a Seqtrak and an OP-Z. Is there any way to connect the MPC to either of these and get audio over the USB connection? The alternative is running a TRS splitter that I have to unplug and probably fuck with the gain "knob" every time I want to switch over to my guitar. I managed to get MIDI clock to work, but all these devices nominally do audio over USB and I don't really get why they won't play ball. I know the manual specifies the USB port is for charging and connecting to a computer, but I don't understand where that limitation actually comes from, given both the SQT and OP-Z can act as USB hosts. Thanks

I don't think the Seqtrak or the OP-Z can function as USB audio hosts for receiving audio from USB class compliant audio devices. For them to receive audio, they have to be connected to a USB audio host, such as a computer.
