Why don't you get a wave editor, chop up the mp3 on computer, save those chops to
wav and place those in the mpc?

audio out of my cpu/ soundcard into my mpc.
Yeah, with a "audio cable". Put some work in and figure out what cable
you need.

Maybe recycle has a 5 min limit somewhere in the setttings.

Maybe just import into sound forge instead? You gotta think about things and not let simple stuff
hold you up. If you just can't get anywhere start thinking about other options and put a hold on
your troubleshooting/worrying/upinarms.
