Am I ready to make beats? List of my gear, let me know!

Hello people!
I'm getting my MPC5000 in a couple of days now
and i was just wondering if there is anything i need to
buy or am i ready to make beats.

My gear:
MPC5000
M-Audio Fast Track
Behringer Xenyx 802
Alesis Point Seven (Inactive monitors that i plug in to an amplifier, so in the end the cables are RCA)
Midi-To-USB Interface.
Mac Pro and PC.

I want to just chop my samples on the computer, put them in the mpc, make the beat and export it right back in to the computer (logic) for mixing.

Am i ready or do i need to buy something else?
A friend of mine told me that i need to get RCA to 4 inc adapters or something like that? Any ideas?

Thanks.

do you have the new Midi headphones?

I just told you what i have .. so, any help?

where do you plan on getting your samples from? may help to get turntable and vinyl, some chop in the pc, but the mpc is made to chop samples....

Yep. You need to invest in this:

Thanks, i will buy that as soon as i get the MPC. But besides from that, im thinking cables, am i all good to go?

I will get a vinyl-player too, when i start to get the mpc.

Thanks

being ready to make beats is more on you then on what gear you have....





... however those midi headphones do help

Well, im ready! All i need to know is if i need to buy any adapters or something like that? To get sound out of the MPC.

Hey bro im new to the MPC game. Made a proper beat 4 days after having it utilizing the Operators Manual, head phones and just playing with it. I had prior expereince using FL Studio.

Your equipment is not going to make the beats for you......

LOLz

You missunderstand me, my question is .. Will i get any sound of it*? or do i need any cables? that i dont have

Got any of these?

Is that RCA or 3.5mm?

the 1/4 phone part plugs into your mpc stereo out and you plug your RCA cables into that.

Thanks!

Also, how do i export my beats from my MPC to my computer?
