when you track using midi always start with a blank bar which will give the machines time to sync to eachother.....use a blank "two" or "four" bar set at the same tempo as the rest of the sequences and insert that blank bar into the beginning of the sequences (I usually do this in song mode) When you trigger the mpc it will play the mpc's blank bar and by the time the bar with music kicks in everything should be synced...

hope it helps......
