  I have the MPC set up to transmit MIDI clock; the MD is set up as 
slave.

  I create a pattern with the MD's sequencer (can't get easier than 
using a step sequencer!), then I record the MIDI notes into the MPC, 
generally using one track for each sound (one MPC track for BD, one 
for SD, one for LT, one for MT, etc, etc..) 

  When I'm all done creating/recording all of my variations and 
tracks, I totally blank out the pattern in the MD.  Then I press play 
on the MPC, go into the Track Mute screen, and jam :)

  I'll also generally program the first track of the sequence to 
transmit a note to the MD to switch it into whatever the blank 
pattern is (which is, of course, associated with the correct kit), so 
that I don't have to worry about remembering what settings I need.
