what makes you think a midi interface will transfer any sound from the mpc to the computer? midi does not transmit any audio....

okay that will work if you want to use your mpc pads as a controller for your computer software but it will not do anything what so ever to help you record any sound coming from the mpc.

I'm glad I bought my MIDI Headphones (By Dre). My mixes are Perfect now. Oh they'll try to discourage you "blah blah Midi doesn't transmit audio blah blah", but that's just because they want to keep the cool stuff secret.

Not entirely true. There's MIDI SDS, not supported by the MPC, the SP1200 and Emax have it, that does do some kinda slow ass wav file transfer via midi.

yeah but that is different... it isn't high fidelity enough for midi headphones!
