Ummm a lil help

Ok lets start it off like this Im new to this whole beat making thing why do i need Midi Interfaces Midi controllers and if i do need Midi Interface why do i need the controller...........? basically i know nuttin about Midi so i need alil help on that first
My set up is:
Xp with Acid 4.0
Labtop with cool edit
Mpc 1000
Korg TRITON Le 61-Key Workstation
and a Mac with recycle on it
Do i need more

duke yur new to this beat making thing and u bought all that shit?id say learn that shit before investin anything else ,do a google search on midi read up on it but u need a midi interface because that what lets the keyboard communicate with the computer in its midi language , most midi keyboards now i have an internal midi interface and u can just plug the usb into the computer and yur all set shit like the midiman oxygen 8 and edirols midi keyboards got internal midi interfaces

Read up on MIDI cause you are asking a big question. You can find answers on the internet everywhere about what midi does, how it works and how it can make life easier/harder depending on how much you learn from what you read and experimentation with it. You have ALL the tools you'll need to make hits. You actually can make hits with less gear than you have but that's up to you. More gear doesn't make you a star, creativity with what you have makes you a star. You got the goods already. Learn u some MIDI and go hard at it. Experimentation is the best teacher. You can sit all day and wait for us to answer but you will ONLY know a function until you get up and do it, mess it up and try again.
Happy beat makin.

My best advice, do homework on ALL your gear, what it can/can't do. Put that knowledge into your process when making music and you'll be fine after some mistakes and ufck ups.

I would say use yur MPC 1000 as yur center piece and have the Triton LE hook up to the 1k thru midi wit the xp sound module! Then u can use the software programs for many other thingz! That's b/c I LOVE hardware but if u perfer usin software as yur main seq then u can go a different route mos def! U have more then enough equipment for a newbie mos def playa!

~ U have nice setup for a newbie! Yuor blessed if u asked me!

Well thanks yall its all good i will do that. Well i got this stuff because im a Rapper and shit and i ghost write alil and i was on a VA album from sony records and shit, So saw alil check off that and said well wont i try to get in beat makin
