you can save midi data the same way u save a sequence.
read the midi section of the manual.
now since u are using an external sound source u can either name the track after the sound u utilized on your mp as a referrence or give us the type/ model of the roland unit so we can give better info... peace

its roland mc 303

how about connect them like that:
from roland output and to mpc 2000 to record in ?
maybe now i will save a sequence from roland to mpc?

MPC as master, roland as slave, mpc midi type track, one roland instrument per mpc midi track.
Each roland instrument needs to have a different unique midi number (1-16). Record one instrument into mpc, then switch mpc midi tracks and record your second roland instrument, then change mpc midi track and record your third roland instrument. Once you record on an mpc midi track DONT change that instrument in roland, MPC will remember the notes you played but the sound will change, looks like you already made that mistake.

how to make mpc master and roland slave ?

i connected them by midi cables and by something like that:
in roland output R to mpc rec in R
and output L [mono] to mpc rec in L

ok, when i save diffrent things on each track, how to save them tnen ? into one beat ?
