Hi!
I have a question for u cause i have an mpc 1000 with an m-box that comes with pro tools and I want to record my beats on the mpc1000 to pro tools, I bought a midi interface(1in 2outs) to sync the mpc1000 to pro tools. But how do I go about doing this.
Do i have to change settings on the mpc and pro tools If so what do i change, and do i record on midi tracks or audio tracks in pro tools.
I managed to sync the two but when i tried recording i just got a flat line going, therefore no sound was being recorded

I'm not on protools but maybe i can help you out a bit.
1. You want record AUDIO into protools, not midi. So your need to hook up a pair of audiocables into your Mbox, and arm an audiotrack for record in ProTools before recording.
2. The midicables are just there to transfer the sync signal for now.
3. Try the Digidesign ProTools website too, they have a good support and FAQ section that should sort you out.
