Hi, I have a question regarding midi on the mpc with os 2.1.

I was wondering, lets say I hook up a drummachine that has a grid step sequencer on board (for instance a korg electribe R-MK2) that sends out midi notes to the mpc's midi-in, so I can grid-step-sequence the samples in my mpc.

But I also like to trigger the drumsounds out of the drummachine by using the pads from the mpc, by connecting the midi out of the mpc to the drum machine's midi-in.

So with that in mind, I would have to run run both a midi in and out port, and on the drummachine as well. Is that possible, this visa versa type of connection and will it work like I want to without any problems?

Thanks in advance :)
