MPC Live used like live vocal processor

Hi all,
is there any way to turn on off or on live vocal effect via midi or pad?
I try to use MPC only like live vocal processor where are used only build in air effect. I use mic with preamp into audiotrack then I use plugin effect. But switching or turning effect vie touch screen is not comfortable. If is some way to change this touchscreen button to pad or map to external gear will be much better for me.
thnx

i think it should work via Midi.
I use either an Ipad or a korg nanocontrol to do this
