Try another turntable.
Check all your connections (leads) from your turntable.
Check the state of your vinyl
If you sample from other place (p.c. or maybe iPod) is the quality better.

I don't think converting your akai mpc 1000 beats into cubase will make them better.
But there is software that can help you reduce hiss and maybe make the sound better. Try Cool Edit Pro.

Mark.
