korg mus be in program mode, midi slave to mpc.

mpc must be master, u choose the midi clock/midi time code whichever you want.

Each korg program must be set to a unique midi channel 1-16.
Each midi track on mpc must be set to midi type track and use device number same as korg program midi channel.

Now you can record korg midi data on that mpc midi type track.

don't make the mistake of running the korg in sequencer mode and mpc in sequencer mode, many people
do that and it's not supposed to work like that.

With the above way I mentioned you'll be using the korg as a sound module.

i thought it was suppose to be in seq mode so that the mpc knows which track it is on.

triton programs can be assigned a midi number.

2kxl sequencer track type = midi, and then change the device number to that same midi number of the triton program midi number.
