Hey there,
Can anyone tell me how i can use my 60 as midi controller to trigger a mpc 3000 ?

the 3000 plays when i plug in a keyboard instead of the mpc 60 , so it should be set up right. I cannot get any midi data out of my 60... hitting the pads does not occure in a midi signal coming out to the 3k. The manual couldnt help me so far.

Are there any key settings that just have to fit so the mpc 60 sends the midi information from the pads through the first midi out?

The Outputs on the 60 are labeled A,B,C and D.
Set "Chn " to whatever your MIDI channel is + A (eg 1A is MIDI channel 1 output 1).
On the MPC60 make sure "Type" is set to Drum and not MIDI.

What OS are you using ? Pretty sure it's not possible to send MIDI out from the pads on OS 2.12
