Hi,

I have recently bought the akai mpc 1000 and I also have a numark ttusb turntable and a pair of monitors. Do you know which setup should I follow in order to use akai as my main sequencer,numark as a source of sampling and I also want to be able to adjust the signal coming up through both mpc,numark and my pc. I want to use mpc as a standalone not as midi. I'm pretty sure this can be achieved through a dj mixer (sorry I'm totally irrelevant to dj equipement,I was a previous owner of a maschine mikro)?

Thanks in advance

to (cause you'll need to go from rca to 1/4 in)

to (cause your gonna wanna roll off highs/mids/lows) unless the 1000 can do that on its own then you can go str8t from TT to MPC

then into your pc's audio inter face interface (unless the mixer is an interface, like the one pictured above)

then out of the interface to your monitors.

but there are lots of different ways to do it.
to ( cause it has to leave the mpc mix outs to the mixer )

here's mine, since my SP-606 is an interface i don't need a mixer, (would be better to have one though, feed back is harder to deal with without one.)

Hi,

To be more specific: I want the mixer output to connect with my monitors. Also, I want to connect numark through mixer (with rca to jack adapter) so I can eq my samples and then to my mpc (in "record in" channels). The output of the mpc goes to the input of the mixer.Also my audio interface (scarlett 2i2 which is connected to my pc via usb) goes to the input of my mixer.The purpose of this is to be able to sent whatever signal I want to my monitors (it can be music coming out of my pc,a vinyl record coming out of my turntable,or the mpc).Is that even possible? I'm not sure if this may cause a feedback loop.

PS: It's the same thing mr thraz posted except I want also my pc signal to come out of my monitors.

Thanks
