MPC 1000 + 2 Slim Phatties MIDI

I'd like to use my MPC 1000's pads as triggers to play back 2 different Slim Phatties. Phatty #1 would handle bass, Phatty #2 would handle lead. So, instead of using up 2 separate MIDI slots on the MPC, would the following setup work for me?

MPC 1000 MIDI Out -> Phatty #1 MIDI In (Phatty #1 MIDI Channel set to 1)
Phatty #1 MIDI Thru -> Phatty #2 MIDI In (Phatty #2 MIDI Channel set to 2)

So, would I be able to sequence each Phatty separately like this? Phatty #1 sequenced on MPC track 1, Phatty #2 sequenced on MPC track 2, both playing at same time on different tracks?

The MPC 1000 has 4 MIDI Outs & 2 MIDI Ins and I'm trying to save space.

Any help from you guys is very much appreciated! Thank you!

Yes -that should work fine. My MPC1000 only has 2 Midi Outs and Midi 2 Ins though.
