Here's my current set-up:
2x Technics 1200 turntables
Rane 72 mixer
MPC Live II production center
Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 audio interface
2x Rokit Monitors
MacBook Pro (2019)
Ableton 10 as DAW
I'm in need of some assistance w/ optimizing this set-up. I want to be able to sample from turntables, thru Rane, into MPC. I'd also like to be able to play back tracks from the MPC while doing cuts from the tables/mixer. This seems like it would be pretty easy, but I've tried a bunch of different configurations. Either I can't get the sample recording at a decent level, there's a hum, or the MPC plays too faint thru the monitors.
Both MPC and DJ set-up sound fine when I plug them into inputs 1 & 2 (front of interface), but I get no sound from whichever is plugged into inputs 3 & 4.
I'm probably missing something fairly obvious, but can't figure it out. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
