Hooking up a turntable to and mpc

Can somebody explain me how to hook my turntable to my mpc please ?
I heard I needed a pre-amp , is there any way to hook the tt without a pre amp and having good results?

If you have a TTX1 (i assume thats what you mean by TT?) there should be a little switch under the turntable by the where you plug in the RCA's and the power supply that says "line/phono"... switch this to line. Scrap the RCA-RCA that came with the deck and get an RCA-1/4 inch stereo plug..... one end will be RCA's, and one end will look like two big headphone male connectors. Plug those into your MPC's in's.... voila.

if got a regular TT then use a mixer plug your TT into the mixer and the outs of the mixer to the in of the MPC you can adjust the sound coming in with the knob next to the volume knob on your MPC.

then you can EQ your sounds before you sample.

check it out bro.
to do it real nice you need a dj mixer
and a music mixer with aux channels.
what you want to do is this.
hook up your tables like you would normaly.
send the dj mixer line out into channel one of the music mixer
bus that channel( record player channel) to the aux send.
send the aux send to the mpc in.
send the mpc out to another channel on the mixer.
you can now sample , listen, and play along .
this set up while it may sound complicated has alot of benefits.
1.. you can audition samples before you sample them, wich is the only way to go i think. this set up allows you to listen to the record player and play a beat at the same time, so when you find something you like, you can sample it right then.
2... this set up can also be used to clean up sounds, since your runnin it through a music mixer you can eq stuff better then on a dj mixer.
you control the volume of the record usin the aux gain.
REMEMBER
TURN MAIN MPC VOLUME DOWN WHEN SAMPLIN OR YOU WIL GET FEEDBACK
IF YOU DO GET SOME NASTY FEEDBACK
EQ IT DOWN AND CUTOFF FILTER IT AND MAKE SOME NASTY BASS TONES
peace

this is a newbie post jonit homie. Lets leave the how to ish in the tech threads. also that has been answered mad times.

it just got answered again

yhea, you will defenitely need a dj mixer to power them up, but does anybody know if you can also use a mixing board to power the turntable up?
I figure that I am going to do recording too so instead of spending my money on a dj mixer I was wondering if a mixing board will work.

Dude.
