Hey guys new here how you all doing. I'm having my mpc delivered today and I know I've got a lot of learning to do as I'm new on the mpc scene. I know I've gotta read the manuals and stuff but does anybody have any quick setup tips.
I own a fantom g6 keyboard and I use pro tools 9. I also have an m box 3 pro interface so any tips for the best way to connect it all up. Thanks guys.

Probably you alread figured it out by now but nevertheless:

Fantom Midi Out -> MPC Midi In
MPC Midi Out -> Fantom Midi In
Fantom Audio Out -> Mixer Line In or directly to M Box
MPC Audio Out -> Mixer Line In / M Box

In case you want to record your Fantom audio right into the MPC, of course Fantom Audio Out -> MPC Rec In. Don't know if the 5k has an audio through function. In this case you could of course send both signals to the M Box just through MPC's out.
