That aint a bad start. Depending on what level you are at with your MPC, I'd say practice and learn how it works using samples.

As far as recording directly into your PC's soundcard from the MPC, without a mixer you have less sound quality control but in your case, i think your sound card probably wasn't up to it. The Audigy isnt really the best but it'l do.

If your going to get into using your PC as a Hard disk recorder you dont need a mixer just yet (You dont have any other midi gear do you?)

Hope that helps

the audigy was probably set to mic or just way too loud. Use your PC's mixer to lower the level.
