I have a sad news for ya, mate: you have to read manuals for both MPC and Micron Just make an effort and have a look at the very beginning of each manual. Browse through until you find some pictures or schemes. That would be the very info you are looking for, i.e. how to connect your devices to other devices or computers. And it is usually accompanied with pictures to make it easy to understand.

Well, for midi connections you'll need midi cables, for audio connections you'll need audio cables - as simple as that. To connect MPC to laptop you'll need a USB cable.
