fast question

can anyone tell me what do i need to transfer beats to my computer please (mpc 2000xl)

you need the right kind of cable (depends on your setup), maybe an audio card (depending on your computer and what exactly you are after), and recording software.

i suggest audacity, its free and very capable.

other than that, you need to give a lot more information regarding what you have and what you are trying to do.



ps. you dont transfer the beats on a 2kxl, you have to record them in.

the only thing I have is the MPC 2000XL and a computer acer, and my soundsystem ofc..

then you need a dual mono 1/4" to stereo 1/8" cable.


and audacity to record into on your computer.

connect your mpc main outs to your computer line-in and then hit record in audacity and play on your mpc. by default, this will save a wav file, which you can burn to cd or convert to mp3 (you can also set up audacity to save as mp3, but that is a little bit more in depth).

ca u indicate a site where i can buy an external soundcard and those cabbles please =)
and thank your for your time my friend =)

That cable would connect the 1/4" outputs of the MPC to the 1/8" audio input of your Acer.

If you are going to use an external audio interface, then you would need a different cable, most likely a pair of 1/4" jack to 1/4" jack cables, if the audio interface had a pair of 1/4" jack inputs.

Ebay search: USB Mixer. Comes in handy for getting, instruments and/or vocals into your computer, even should U change form the XL to something else at some point.

All depends on your budget. Might also compare a search for: USB Audio Interface. There are inexpensive up to expensive options
