Topic: help with my new setup / for recordin jammin
short explanation: i've got a bunch of gear and don't know the best way of hooking it up for what i want to do.
what i want to do: i want to be able to use - my ms-20, mpc2500, guitar w/ mini kp, and microphone. i want to be able to
have some jamming with these, so use them simultaneously coming out of speakers and also be able to record these
sessions into my laptop and if possible a da-88 tascam recorder (the da-88 would just be a plus not necessary).
all the gear i have: ms-20, mpc2500, guitar w/ mini kp, microphone, macbook, mbox 2, mackie cr-1604 mixer, alesis
mk II monitor speakers (not active) and da-88 tascam recorder.
my first guess was to have everything (ms-20, mpc, guitar...) run in through the mackie then from the mackie to the
mbox2 then into the macbook. i've already run into a few problems though (not knowing how to connect mpc to the
mixer, i might just need some diff plugs?) i'm pretty confused and obviously a noob with recording as i've just been
playing with all the gear and listening through with headphones. any help is as always greatly appreciated and much
needed. i've gotten way more help on these forums than i've given back i hope to change that in the future after i've
learned a bit. thanks in advance for your helpful words!
