i have a stanton t.60, a behringer eurorack ub1202, and my mpc 500. i am just trying to figure out how to set everything up properly to sampe the best i can utilizing all three pieces of hardware.

***edit

to clarify, i need to know what cables to run and to where. honestly i would like to go from my table, to the mixer, to the mpc to record, then back to the mixer and out of the headphones. if that makes sense, if anyone could help me figure out what cables i need and where they need to go into that would be great, i have been expierementing alot but it hasn't really got me what i want. and for anyone that knows about this stuff and is willing to help, but doesn't know about this specific mixer, heres the site for it http://www.behringer.com/UB1202/index.cfm?lang=eng

run your turntable in a stereo channel on your mixer. RCA cables into the turntable and 1/4in cables into the mixer. run the main outs of your MPC into another stereo channel on your mixer, 1/4in cables to 1/4in cables. If your just working with headphones, run the main outs of your mixer back into the Record In on your MPC. same cables as last one. Then plug your headphones in and your set. The fader will control the signal going to the MPC, usually (but i know you can route signals to different places using those buttons on the behringer mixer), and the Headphone knob will control the playback volume.

let me know if it works out
