Hi guys & girls,
I received my MPC X yesterday and I'm currently struggling how to set it up the right way, for my existing equipment.
My current setup:
- an old pioneer DJM 500 - which is a 4 Channel Mixer, with 3 audio outputs and a booth monitor output
- a turntable
- a Motif midi keyboard
- active monitor speakers
My goal:
I want to be able to separately use
- turntable only
- keyboard only
without turning on the MPC.
On the other hand, when using the MPC - I want to be able to record the audio of the turntable & keyboard.
Can this be achieved?
My thoughts so far
I connect all my gear (turntable / keyboard / mpc) to the mixer inputs.
1 mixer audio output to the active monitors.
1 mixer audio output to the MPC!?...but this cannot be right
Please let me if you need further details.
I want to avoid damaging the outputs/inputs of my gear, therefore I've decided to ask before doing anything stupid
