So right now im in a position were i really want a turntable but i do not have one....so i find myself at my grandmas house the other day looking at the collection of vinyl she has and my heart is literally beating out of my chest because i cannot use any of it. Then i started doing the math....vinyl + vinyl + more vinyl + some mo' vinyl = record player. Yeah it took me awhile. So i check the record player out and the only jack is a HEADPHONE jack. Is it possible to sample through this if i had the right chords and converters. If not is there another way?

take a 1/4in plug and go from the HP to the input of a mixer so you can get a hotter sound and you can clean it up a bit.

i have a califone turntable that has a extntion for speakers and this is how i would do it .

but i have a dj mixer tho that runs in to my 12chl mixer

then you need to invest in one too

look one up http://sfbay.craigslist.org/ in your area.

not speakin about you ...... but why dudes try to produce and they aint ready equipemnt wise or dont want to spend money,

man i have worked hard for evrything i got ....sure it wasnt cheap but MOM AND POP didnt buy it for me.

it takes time to get your shi+ together.
i see this more and more.

anyways try to look in the paper too to see what you can afford. the shi+ is gettin cheaper.
