Try your local music store.
You had to order a USB cable through the mail, Where in the hell do you live at TIMBUKTU

lol it was like 2 dollars free shipping from ebay so i was like **** it

welcome to the wonderful world of mpcs.

read the manual, cover to cover - it's available for download online, and is searchable.

also, use the search function on these forums. there is a wealth of information here that is easily accessible. as you can imagine, you're not the first to ask this question.

it's a good idea to bookmark and make constant reference to:
http://www.tweakheadz.com/
this explains the basics of music production and studio use and set-up.

-power cord - iec power cord.
-1/4 trs cables to get audio in and out of the mpc.
-usb cable to transfer files to and from computer/mpc
-audio/midi interface to hook up pro tools and mpc

i'd also suggest you install the jj operating system on your mpc.

^^^thank you very much. sorry if this question has been asked many times before. but your help is very much appreciated
