Ok. Today I tested again.
Having the MPC as slave is nonsense; there's noticeable latency which I can't correct. And I don't know how stable it is.
The other way round sounds much more tight. Even though the clock is visually jumping around a bit. Mostly in the decimals. Sometimes when I stop/start the bpm will show a fraction of the actual tempo shortly, like when playing in 110, show 38.3 or something like that. And then
quickly jump to the right spot.
These machines take some getting used to each other, but it starts to become workable if you know the quirks. Still have weird motifs if I stop / start the NDLR being slave without it receiving stop / start from master. At least, I think that's the trigger. Further investigation needed. But I didn't want to, because I was actually noodling for the first time and it was very enjoyable!
Ended up with a little noodle... I guess it's workable this way!

Now I'll have to go and deepdive the manual.
