Ableton lets you adjust it's midi timing by miliseconds. if you go to the midi ports panel and click on the arrow next to the port, you can swing the timing to lock in with Ableton. try setting the metronome on in ableton and the MPC, play them together, and adjust the timing until it's locked tight.
