It's doesn't look like the unit has any midi capabilities so you won't be able to send a start message to your mpc. It looks as if you'll plug into the mic 1 and 2 ports using 1/4" cables coming from your mpc's main output. For general recording methods you should read your manual.

Dang u wont be able to sync the two. U will have to record it as a stereo track from your MPC to the recorder. So i advice u to do a pretty good mix in the mpc and then record it as a stereo track to the BR-600. As mentioned MPC outs to the LINE IN on the machine.

It's a multitrack recorder, so you can as well record multiple tracks seperately.

I do know that much but how will he sync all the tracks. I didnt mention recording multiple takes b/c it doesnt offer MIDI capabilities meaning he would have to sit there and try to align all his tracks. That can be very time consuming and a pain in the ass if you got a bunch of tracks to record.

Yes, you're right.
