whats up everyone,

My equipment:

Mpc 4000
Numark tt200 /w shure M44-7 needle
Denon mixer X120

TT200 to the Denon, Denon to the Phono MPC 4000.

I recently purchased the turntable and mixer. This is the start of sampling for me and I'm having a problem.
I was trying to sample some bells from a record and no matter what kind of eq settings I made on my denon I could not capture the Hi Freq to get the bells only. I tried many eq settings, i gave it some mids and nothing. I gave it some lows and nothing, so on and so on. There is also Options on the mixer PGM1/2 and Master and I tried recording from both. I tried volume but nothing.

Can some one help me?

I also tried running the recordings thru the filters of my MPC but it's not what I wanted. I want to record what I can hear from my monitors Event 20/20.
As, I'm typing this, there is one thing I did not try and that is record to my Cubase just as audio then just dump it to the 4000. I'll try that tomorrow. If that works, I don't need the denon I'll just return it and get my money back. M

Maybe it's the RCA cables? Maybe the phono on the MPC 4000. Not sure.

Has anyone experienced this problem before? How do I sample correctly?

Never mind! I figured it out! In record mode in my MPC 4000 I switched to sample from Stereo to Mono. Works great!

Hope this helps someone in the future.

Peace

every now and then you will get lucky and find the instrument that you like on either the right or left channel without all of the background noise from the rest of the tune.

Goes to show that if you tweak the machine you can do some interesting things.

AHAHAHA man thers more puusssy newbies on here then i thought ,TUT haad to come to there defense,

well that said .... learn to chop....you can get that sound out with minimal sound then just filter it .

one shot's should be recorded in mono anyways they sound better plus you can do some really dope paning effects .
