2.Fantom X module
3.Motif ES module
4.Trition E
5.Digi 02

The problem is I have Midi Lag I daisy chain my Fantom to the Motif Thru Port All my midi ports on the MPC are full Is there a way that I can do this with out the Thru Port

NEVER DAISY CHAIN MOTIF OF FANTOM RACKS!!! They are notorious for midi lag. Give them each their own output into the mpc. If you are gonna chain anything I would say chain the triton.

I mean Why are u hooking up so many god damn modules? But anyway I would get a patch bay. Not usb but a midi patch bay. Maybe you should invest in a different mpc if you want to run that many devices. the 4000 and 3000 both have 4 midi outs. U might wanna look into these
