MPC5000 reviews, bug reports and fellow user support on the most recent standalone, hardware MPC from Akai

Hi,

Currently I have an AKAI MPK61 & MPC5000.

My MPK61 Midi controller is connected to my PC via USB, and I can control my DAW with it. I was wondering, if I connect my MPC5000 to MPK61 with a MIDI cable (Midi out from MPC and Midi in to MPK), will I be able to control my DAW by using the MPC as a Midi control as well?

I appreciate for some information how can I hook my MPC to my computer and control the pads in DAW.

Or should I get an Audio Interface with MIDI connectors and hook my MPC to my PC?

Cheers
