So i have the yamaha dgx 205 keyboard via USB midi... it has no other midi ins or outs... i use it for vst's in fruity loops such as east west colossus and hypersonic.. basically i want to be able to record the audio coming from my pc (the samples triggered by my midi keyboard) straight into the mpc while a drum loop is playing on it and work with it from there.. Can someone please tell me what i would need to do in order to accomplish this, because i'm going to go to guitar center later today to pick up w/e i need.
Thanks!

which would u recommend ? i have about $200 to spend only

also, would i connect it going from the MPC directly to the PC? Doing this would record audio into the MPC from the PC?

You can get the M-audio audiophile 96 pci sound card. The route the outputs of the sound card from the comp to your RECORD IN on the mpc.

or

If you have a recording prog (Cool edit, cubase, soundforge, etc). You can sync FL with the MPC then rewire FL(as vst) to your recording software. The mpc will need to be hooked up to your line in/mic input on your stock sound card.
