By exporting midi into logic I mean you can either use ultrabeat or exs24 as the sound source afterwards you wished. Depends on your drum library and preference to record audio or midi sequences. Either will do it is up to you. Some have extensive drum libraries set up in their mpcs programs and outboard preamps, and such so they prefer to record their drums by audio into Logic studio. If you have the same in your software samplers then all you need is your sequence recorded.
It isn`t difficult to decide just you need to step back and look at what is it you don`t know oppose to what you already know.
You will lay out instruments to a track to eq and balance, make an arrangement, and a mixdown to stereo tracks which is where logic comes to play plus as a virtual instruments and mixing board.
The main instrument to play is your mpc pads and its sequencer if you wish. All in all your preference comes into play do you feel better playing the mpc to create your beats and record or using a midi keyboard or midi pads playing and sequencing in logic. Both are sequencers except mpc has built in controllers and little latency playing in to its internal sequencer.
First though have you set up your CoreMIDI in Apple correctly?
I play out a drum sequence on my mpc first with its sequencer. Then I sync it up to logic with the mpc as a slave and listen to the levels and record it as audio though my 8 outputs with (no count in) . Once it is inside logic I continue building from there using logics`s sequencer with the mpc set to off. Like before i repeat if I want to use my drum samplers in logic ultrabeat, battery 3 or etc I record in a midi track and finish everything in logic.
