Recording good drummixdown

Hey, while recording my 60 I always recognize that the sound really sucks when I put the "LEFT out" of the mpc into my mixer (which controls the volume) next to this the Kick dont have the punch sound at all. So I decided to record one instrument after the other and then I hear the mix in cubase with all the layers.

Which recording method do you have? and how about this weak sound ( is it just the samples that suck?) btw.: is it possible to delete sounds in overdub mode while the mpc is synced to the computer so I dont have to stop and delete and replay or retry to record one part on the mpc.

Thank you for the help!

I just record in to my tascam hdrecorder from all outputs and have no problem with the sound it records. Basicly you are saying you have signalloss when you record in to cubase right? Might want to check ur interface,

I sync my MPC to protools using SMPTE. I only have 4 inputs on my soundcard so this is the easiest way for me to record multiple passes.

I use FSK24 to sync to my computer (running Samplitude). Everything sounds the same no matter what outs on the 60 I use.

I think I know what you might be hearing.
When recording through the individual outs, each sound should be using the full 12 bits worth of dynamic range offered by the MPC and then you are mixing them at probably 32bit if your using a modern DAW.
When you use the mix out to play back more than one sound at a time the sounds are mixed in the MPC's 12bit mix engine before being passed to the computer, which will result in audible signal loss unless you are carefull with your gain structure.
Other than that, you might have a wonky left output or dodgy cables.

You should also go to the mix page on the MPC and check panning for the sounds you are recording. If they are panned to the wrong side you will get a lower signal .
