I never got this answered yesterday: My turntable has a red and white RCA connection that acts as a built-in preamp. That's it. How do I connect this to a speaker and then to my MPC so I can both hear it AND record audio directly into my MPC? Thank you in advance for any suggestions you might have.

what MPC do you have? it might not be possible ,and its better anyway if you just use a mixer.
People still use MPCs?
I don't have an MPC (used to really want one but then learnt it's all DAW based now) but got an Akai MPK25. Pretty good desu but way too small for me so getting an 49 or 61 key version in the future

The MPC Renaissance. How do I set this all up through a mixer? Everything I have learned I have learned from Google and a years worth of hard work, and now that I'm finally getting paid for it I have nobody to go to to figure out this basic stuff I glossed over

Of course, for sample based hip-hop it is the holy grail. I doubt anyone still uses them for other genres, though maybe solely as a drum machine somebody with good money would have one in their set up.

Where did you hear that
Have fun making EDM

>only EDM uses DAW's
near everything uses DAW now, especially Hip-Hop. Even old-school sounding beats are made on a computer. Only artists I can think who still use MPCs are people like Madlib and MF Doom, not that that is a bad thing, of course.
this thread is dumb as shit
figure your shit out, renaissance is bullshit go get a 2500 or something the whole point is to not use a computer wtf
>using an MPC
>in 2017
well I may use floppys to store my files and make phonecalls from phone boxes only as well

are you retarded or just extremely new to beatmaking? anyone is using either only a DAW or some new generation hardware like maschine mk2 or the sp404; only people that still use MPC are some dinosaurs from the 80's that couldn't keep up with the times
