well, for use as a midi controller-- how exactly do you use it?
i have one midi cable so would i go microkorg out to mpcmidi in? ive fooled around with it and when i press some keys on the korg it triggers pads on the mpc, but what use could it be? i was wondering if maybe i could press/hold pads on the mpc to trigger some sounds from the korg..

hehe dude ur gonna need another midi cable so its goin into the micro korg out from ur mpc, right now the way u got it u can send midi messages to ur mpc but the mpc cant send messages back to the korg like keep it in sync, just go out to the store get another midi cable and then we talk midi :) and synth

i've heard some nice sounds come out of a microkorg, but i was messing with one earlier and the keys on it are like something off a fisher price toy.
