I just figured this out and thought I'd share so that anybody could add to it.
If you have Fruity Loops you can try this
1. Have your mpc1000 outs plugged into your audio interface (delta44 in my case)
2. Open up Fruity Loops (tested on FL5)
3. Open up the mixer window
4. Select the appropriate sound card/input ports
5. Load up desired effects
6. Load and play a project from your MPC - your sound will be effected in real-time without having to record the audio first
This technique is mainly for people who don't have/can't afford effects racks who want to achieve a higher quality sound while working on projects or like to control the sound before the recording step.
Another good thing is you can assign different interface inputs onto different FL mixer tracks, meaning you can have your drums on separate tracks and samples split up onto other tracks - all while running different/multiple effects boxes on them. This method also gives you the ability to record each track separately.
The downsides to this is having to be near a computer, or being limited by inputs on your interface - and I know some FL haters that would be disgusted at having the two working together like this.
I didn't experience any latency issues at all when I tried this either.
If you guys know any other techniques/methods geared towards this - please share.
