Wasup ,
I'm trying to decide the best way to use the 8 outs on my MPC 3000. Right now I have a mackie 1202 mixer and a Tascam M-1B line mixer. I was thinking to use the line mixer for the 8 outs and go into the mackie from there. What I want to do is sample from my mixer into the MPC since my phono amp is plugged into the board but when I connect the alt outs on the mixer to the MPC and also have the mpc on its own channel, I get a horrible feedback. I guess I was thinking that the alt outs would allow me to send only the turntable to the MPC without creating a feedback loop. What I'm getting at is basically do I need a new mixer with more channels and outs, etc. and what do you all use? Thanks and Peace.

i thought i could do the same thing when i bought my mixer.....im not sure exactly features on yours.

But your gonna need a separate mixer, probably a dj mixer.

Right now i just have a direct connect of the turntable to the mpc. I can only preview the samples in sample mode

BTW. is your name zeke?

A dj mixer only has like 2 ins/outs tho.....
I have my tables going through mixer then into MPC but I want to be able to use the indiv. outs too plus sample back into the MPC from the computer etc....
Peace
