mixer, Sp+mpc , speakers

Post by Champloo »

i want to chop my samples on my mpc 1000 (because its easier on the mpc than the Sp303) and also play my keyboard synth along with it. i want my Sp303 to act as an effects processor for both my mpc 1000 and synth.

i have a 4 channel mixer, that has stereo outputs and a stereo aux out. my question is where do i plug the Sp 303 and speakers up, for this particular setup?

do i plug the aux outs from the mixer into the Sp303 or the main outs of the mixer into the 303?

(basically, i want the 303 to be last in the chain so that my other machines will be running through it to pick up the effects)

thank you guys

if you're just using the mixer for the speakers then...

keyboard >> MPC >> SP303 >> mixer >> speakers

theres a million ways you could hook your gear up ..

2nd. If I had the same setup I'd go stereo ins from the keyboard & MPC into the mixer. Then stereo aux out to the SP-303, which goes stereo in to the MPC. This set up allows resampling via both samplers & keeps the keyboard ready to be sampled by anything.

i think i have what you guys are saying, like this?

keyboard audio outs >> mixer channel 1
mpc 1000 audio outs >> mixer channel 2
mixer aux outs >> sp 303 inputs
sp 303 outputs >> mpc 1000 record inputs
L/R speakers >> mixer L/R main outs

Exactly! Hope it works for you too.
