Yes i like to play parts in live. But the weird thing is....when the midi information is played back it sounds all weird. Are you saying...that for the parts I want to play in live I shouldnt record the midi info at the same time. That is, to litrally just record the audio?

With looping, you can either record your MIDI part, and then set the L/R locators and loop the section, or you can just make the MIDI part a certain length (4 bars) and copy and paste the MIDI part as many times as you like. On mac I just select the part, then press [Apple]+D. Maybe it is control or whatever on PC

As far as the MIDI not playing back right, it might just be that your timing is slightly off (no criticism intended) at least, that was what happened with me. Try recording with a click. Otherwise try to turn off any quantising you may have on there.

I always play live, but only as MIDI, not audio. After everything ha been sequenced, then I bounce the MIDI parts to audio, and do further processing/automation etc

SX is a great program, especially for MIDI.
