Welcome to the club.

what else do i need for it now...
got headphones/speakers/midi keyboard/turntable
i need midi cables right...
got a usb cable...
what do i need to hook the turntable up...

i sold my old turntables and bought a numark pt-01 and some other bells and whistles. the pt's nice because it's small, doesn't take a lot of space, it's extremely portable (thus the name, portable turntable - 01) anyway... i don't even use a mixer with that ****. I go directly from the 1/4" headphone jack into the mpc's record in. works nice for me.

I'd suggest getting one of these and then grabbing some good hardware recorder, an akai dps-16 or roland v1880. i'm currently working on a g4 powerbook with an mbox, but... i can't stand staring at the screen. i'm sort of a more hands on worker.

so... you should get a turntable first.

im seein how much this gonna cost to put on the mpc 1000 wit an all black background
if someone can photoshop how that'd look for me id be greatful

paid under $700.00 for mine

I have a blue one, less than three months old, comes with 32 MB memory card and OS 2.10 installed. Im asking $650 plus shipping.

Get at me if anyone is interested...

megaton:

you need a preamp to convert the signal coming from turntable going into the mpc. you can find these pretty cheap.

i also recomend getting a high quality needle if your going to be ripping alot of samples. shure whitelabel, a little expensive but will give you quality samples.


check out the thread on: the black 1000

whats a good preamp under $100?

megaton:

check out www.zzounds.com theres some under $100.

you'll want one with 2 input riaa converters (L+R), 2 line out ( L+R) and a ground for your turntable. that way your samples will be in stereo.

you might want to check out one with a usb, so you can connect it to your computer as well.
