wah gwan mpc-forums, i just grabbed an mpc 1000 and im completely clueless. along with this machine i have a edirol pcr-30 midi keyboard and stanton str8-80 tables w/ stanton smx-251 mixer.

i opened the box up and i wanted to play around with it and then i realized i didnt put in the speakers. i havnt grabbed monitors yet but i have some nice temp. speakers. can someone explain to me how to plug this in and how to hook up the tables and all that

First you need to get some proper spelling, second you need to purchase a pair of Midi Headphones to get sound from the MPC 1000. Look into that then hit us back.

Whats that?


Try this:
Midi Keyboard Out -> Midi In Mpc
Mpc Main Out -> Mixer Line In
Turntables -> Mixer Phono Ins
Mixer Record Out -> Mpc In
Mixer Main Out -> Amp/Speakers
