been a while since I used my mpc 2000 xl . Anyways I took it to get some work done and now that I got it back im not getting any volume through my phone cable for sampling.....don't know if the cable is damaged or the phone out... Im getting volume when I load sounds from the zip... helpppppppp could the guy at samash have damaged it ?

I don't understand the full issue.
What source are you sampling from? Turntable.. PC?
Do you hear anything through your speakers? make sure the REC gain is up.
Is it JUST the headphone out you can't hear audio?
Check cables etc.

REC is the recording level, if this is at 0 you will not hear the audio coming from the sample source. (If I'm correct... I'm not at my MPC to check though).
You may need to check the channel/track settings coming out of your DAW (if that's how your sampling).

You might be high, the small black (stereo 1/8") end goes from the PC line out, then into the MPC RIGHT and LEFT RECORD IN
