what you need is a dj mixer and a turntable inorder to record

plug in all the stuff correctly go to mode record and then press record while insuring your record signal dosent go above the threshold you set

there


assuming that he wants to record from vinyl. and doesnt the 2.5k have a pre amp?

find a sample. take the output of the sample and connect it to the input of the mpc.
go to sample mode.

sample.

trim sounds and assign sounds to pads.

read the manual
