You need to connect cables from your MPC outputs to your amp/monitors.
Ain't no sound ever came out of a midi cable.
Connecting audio cables is the most basic of stuff, c'mon you are not even trying. This sort of question is gonna piss most people off on these boards.
Forget the Pro tools for a minute and concentrate on your MPC on it's own for a while. Get that working, then try integrate it with the PT.
Sorry to be harsh but, you gotta learn.

MIDI does not transmit sounds

you can use the mbox to sync for recording through midi, or use the mpc as a midi controller for stuff like reason.

MIDI just says i pushed this button this hard at this time
