sampling sounds to loud

so im trying to sample some vinyl with my record player but every time i sample a song into my mpc it sounds way to loud. its way to loud feels like it can pop my ear drum. any one has an idea why this is happening, never use to happen to me or how to fix this problem?

A lot more info needed. Such as MPC model, Turntable model. Are you using a preamp or DJ mixer?

etc.

im using the mpc renaissance, Numark PT01USB Turntable and preamp.

I am pretty sure the Numark PT01 doesn't need a preamp so try using it without.
Also try setting the renaissance input to line not phono

i switch it to line and its still to loud. i justed hooked up my record player with the white and red cables(forgot what theyre called) to my mpc and thats all i use. maybe thats the problem?

You mean you still hear sound even if you turn the gain all the way down on your pre-amp?
