im having trouble linking up my KP with my MPC. I want to use it on a drum track but not on either of the other tracks. Is there a way of doing that or is it not possible?

Also how do you use the midi with the MPC?

Thanx :)

oh no my friend, there is a ghetto way to do it... pan all your drum tracks to the left, everything else to the right. only send the left out (your drum tracks) through the kaoss pad. see? simple but effective.

ok so is this setup right then?

mpc right out - kp right in
kp line out - mixer line in 1
mpc left out - mixer line in 2

I only have a two channel dj mixer.
