HAS ANYONE USED BATTERY 3 WITH KORG NANOPAD2 IN MUSIC CREATOR 5 YET?

Ok this all started when I bought a br600 off craigslist and created my first 5 songs from scratch to master. It turned out great, but I wanted more flexibility in editing and more freedom to add individual tracks without all the headache of bouncing tracks, which makes it impossible to tweak effects on each instrument afterwards, so it led me to computer based recording. So, I went shopping and was told at the music store I'd need an interface, a controller and drum software so I ended up with an M-audio Fast Track Pro, Battery 3, and a Korg Nano Pad2 midi controller. I was told the included ProTools software would be all I needed to get started. But the included software was very limited in tracks unless I upgraded to a $300 package. Well I already had enough invested for my tastes and ended up with a $39.95 Music Creator 5 box edition instead. I'm hoping to use the Korg Nanopad2 controller with Battery 3 as a VST in Music Creator 5 and could use any tips in setting the pads on the Kord Nanopad2 to trigger individual sounds in Battery 3 for and Music creator 5 as a drum sequencer to build Rhythm Loops. I noticed MC5 has a studio drums app included but I'd rather use what I already paid about $150 bucks for, which looks a lot more powerful anyhow. I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions about programming midi and adding external instruments/sounds later in the creative process but for now what I need to start is the easiest way to hook up what I already have to create beats/loops and start building some music :) I plan on recording Guitar Bass and Vocal using audio tracks but also plan on using a midi keyboard to add everything from Ambient noise to Orchestral Backgrounds for my music. Whatever push in the right direction anyone can offer is GREATLY appreciated. I've always had what I think is the most incredibly beautiful music playing in this brain of mine and feel so blessed that its finally affordable to get it out in digital quality to share with the world! 

Hopefully I'll have it hooked up in a ASUS desktop with Intel I7 chipset Windows 7 64bit with 9g ram using an Maudio Fast track Pro interface this weekend (Good Lord willing...lol)

Welcome to the forum.
If you're not planning on using this set up live, you won't really need to set up the Nanopad to trigger sounds in my opinion. You can use a MIDI note to play the sounds, either drawn in MC in the Piano Roll view or the Staff view. Or recorded into a MIDI track with the keyboard.
Remember, what you hear when playing the controller isn't recorded; just the MIDI note is recorded and the MIDI data is sent to a software or hardware synthesizer to make the sound. To permanently 'record' that sound you would need to bounce the MIDI track/soft synth track to an audio track.
Folks who play live music may want to trigger sounds on the fly with their synths and controllers and to be able to quickly choose a sound to play. If your interest is recording your music, you should have everything you need to get started now.
Connect the controller, install any drivers that might have come with the controller.
In MC under Options>MIDI Devices, make sure MC sees the controller as a valid input. You won't need a MIDI output since the controller makes no sound.
Go to Insert>Soft Synths at the top and select Battery 3. Make sure 'Create MIDI Source Track' is selected. A MIDI track and a soft synth track will be inserted.
In the MIDI track, select the controller as the input and ensure that the output is set to Battery 3.
Lower the output volume of the synth track. I downloaded the demo version of Battery 3 awhile ago after reading your post and some of the kits are LOUD! You don't want to hurt anything, like the new Fast Track, your speakers or your ears.
Select a kit in Battery. Play the controller. You should hear drums.
Good luck!
