rca from turntable to mixer or preamp then from there to input of mpc. You need to be on the analoug source unless using digital cables which you are not. Start the record and slowly turn up the rec volume untill you see the level in the mpc reach about 80 percent and then press record. It will record for 10 seconds unless you change the setting time. After that choose keep and trim / edit from there. I would suggest downloading the 2k manual from the akai site www.akaipro.com because you seem really lost.
