Throughout the thread it turned into midi syncing and with that comes sequencing in a master slave environment.
Without midi between the 2 machines your just playing around with sounds and not sequencing.
With midi syncing it shows that you plan on sequencing and with the 2 machines it's imminent that
you'll begin to make beats and sequence.
Wait... WHAT?! You need to sync to sequence? Like you said previously, sequencing should be done on one sequencer, preferably the MPC. This is the ideal method and doesn't require you to sync because all you are going to be doing is using the ASR10 as a sound module (rack or keyboard). The only reason to sync is if you want to use two sequencer or if you need parameter syncing.
To the OGP, from what I read, at one point you were only using one midi cable? Make sure there are two midi cables in use between the two machines (i know its probably obvious but you really seem to be lost).
Now at this point you need to go into the ASR10 manual read up on
ALL the pages for Edit > System*MIDI (pages 33 - 42). This will educate you one the more important menus/options/modes such as MIDI BASE CHANNEL, TRANSMIT ON, AND MIDI IN MODE.
From there you should be able to set every thing up so that you can accomplish what you originally asked. However, i dont know how you would spread the note of a MPC sample through just midi configuration with the ASR10 as i do not own an MPC anymore, all i use is the ASR10. BUT, it think maybe the 16 level option may help. Also note that in the MPC, midi transmit and receive settings are usually set to GM so you might have to go in and set up the MPC pad trigger number so they are chronically ordered. Syncing the two should follow after in the Edit > Seq*Song.
EDIT:
Once you set everything up the way you want in the ASR10 go to Command > System*MIDI > SAVE GLOBAL PARAMETERS. This will save all the settings to the OS disk for the next boot up.
