I'm using the mpc2000xl, and the triton, throwing tracks into the pro tools and syncing the digi002 back into the mpc.
What is the best way to quiet down all tracks except the selected track:
Would it be
1) turning down all volumes in mix, keeping it in song mode.
2) creating a song conversion and turn mix volumes down.
3) keep it song mode and mute with pads in each sequence

Also, I'm using the triton as a slave to the mpc, then throwing it into the pro tools. Do I use the same method in dropping track for track, or is there something else that needs to happen?

Thanks alot class! Just reading it alone helped alot!

Yet, for some reason, I feel more comfortable syncing my digi002 to my mpc and not have to deal with the cutting and pasting.
And I don't see why all the fuss on your post. It takes about the same amount of time to loop an 8, ( one track ) then cut and paste it over a four and a half, five minute song.
If you decide to want to record the whole song, in form, in sync, track per track,
you'll still find yourself spending about the same amount of time "creating a song" as you would cutting and pasting each one.
Then again your strengths can be my weakness, and mine yours .

No disrespect,
Peace!

the mpc can use the trinity as a slave, taking its sounds through midi and recording them into it.
