When u say slave that means u want the Korg Triton to be the master and everything to go on inside da Triton. Da MPC sequncer is actually alot better than the Triton's in my opinion. But make sure you turn OFF Local Control on your Triton. Since Lamp Dog dropped da link u can go read da rest and save me some typing.
