i’m new to the OT but gradually getting my head around it. so far i’ve been creating patterns using audio tracks only. i want to incorporate MIDI so that i can create patterns (or sequences?) using MIDI to trigger one-shots on my MPC1000. i’m not looking to then run the MPC output back into the OT, i only want to send MIDI to the MPC to trigger samples.
