MPK25 - mapping pads and keys to different channels. how??!

Hey guys,

Just got an MPK25 and got a question. When i load just sylenth in ableton for example I can play the keys. When i only have drum rack opened i can use pads. But when two channels have midi - everything stops working and i cant control neither keys nor pads. how can i select which channel is controlled by pads or keys?

Much appreciate any insight. looked through literary every resource and cant find an answer.

thanks

I’m just wanting to arm 2 tracks simultaneously in Ableton, the pads to drums, and the keys to a synth

4h later i got it. i guess i had to arm a track to use it. and also see the channels i had to select. hope this helps to someone who runs into similar issue. In this case sylenth is keys and drumrack is pads.
