I need to sync my mpc to protools but all of my midi jacks on my mpc are taken. Midi A I/O=korg ms2000 and Midi B I/O= MFC42. Is there a way I can still sync the mpc to protools without unplugging any of these? I'm sure I can probably connect with the through jack on one of these units but I'm new at this and need help.
thanks

MPC MIDI OUT A -> MS2000 MIDI IN
MS2000 MIDI Thru -> MFC42 MIDI IN

MPC MIDI OUT B -> Pro Tools MIDI IN

That should do it. Or get a MIDI splitter/router box. If you want to record MIDI out of all 3 to the MPC, you'll need a MIDI Merge, or be happy to change cables. I think :-)
