the mpc has two MIDI outs, and two MIDI in cables. does that mean a single MIDI to MIDI male won't work, and that i need dual MIDI's? also, for software to trigger tne mpc, do the MIDI cables in the mpc go "in" or "out"? many thanks

The MIDI IN port is used when you're slaving the MPC from another time clock.
The MIDI OUT port is when you're using the MPC as a master and slaving another device off the MPCs time clock.
If you're using software to trigger the MPC, you need to send the MIDI Out from your software device to the MIDI In on your MPC. There's probably some global setting you'll need to adjust, such as MIDI channels, etc.
