mpc to mx400 midi in, and set the program number by PCseq on the mpc.
You'll have to set the correct midi channels on both machines of course.
You can also use midi CC to change the mx400's parameters in real time (decay time, etc, etc) and also record the changes in the mpc.

e.g. You can set up one track using midi out C for your prophet and another track using midi out D for your Lexicon.
One of the best things about the 2500 is the amount of flexibility it affords you with its two midi inputs and four midi outputs. I don't even need to mention JJ... that's a given :) *bow

Gratz on the Prophet 8 by the way :D
I got a fair few bits of analogue kit miself :P
Analogue rokKs. I'd also love an SP1200, but they are a lotta coinage 4 me at the mo!
