MPC2000Xl - Getting the beats onto CD

I've had my MPC for a summer now, and it has been hooked into my mixer and turntables for the duration. I have a cd burner hooked up to the MPC as well, but it only loads the drums from there. I was wondering if anyone could give me advice on the easiest way of going about getting my beats on cd. There are a million programs out there, but i don't know which one(s) to choose. thanks-

You can't burn from your MPC as you know unless you had a 4000
1) You can hook your baby's OUTS to a computer that has one of the audio softwares, record it there and then burn it...

2) you can hook it up and record to a digital work station and then burn from there.... (what I do)

3) Hook it directly to a CD burner that burns as your beat is playing

I'm not sure if there are any other options

Thanks alot, I'm sure i can get one of these options to work -

What if you want to bring the tracks into your computer seperately and mix down? What's the easiest way? Is that two tracks at a time? Split between your L & R outputs?

Use a software multitracker, like Pro Tools Le, but theres' alot of other programs to choose from. You'll need an audio interface/soundcard for your computer to do this.
You can record two tracks at a time with the master outs, but the 'easiest' way (not the easiest on your pocket) is to track out using the 8 individual output board on the mpc.

This has been discussed in depth in the past, so you can search for the info you'll need.

Audacity is great, free and cross-platform!

all these guys with bread and no mustard.....
