Connecting turntable to Machinedrum

Hello there!

Ive got a Machinedrum, a turntable and a xone:22 mixer, how can in connect them in order to use them like hector did in the Machinedrum tutorial 3? Or rather how should I connect the mixer to the Machinedrum? With which cables?

Thanks in advance!

fyi i’ve never done it with a mixer – i connect my deck straight into the md via a preamp, and adjust the input and ram machines’ volume using a ctr-8p machine. (feels more straightforward and uses less gear.)

in your case i would assume you’d want to: connect the turntable to the mixer, send the deck’s output through a set of aux outs as well as the mixer’s mains, connect the aux outs to the md’s inputs, and then run the md into a second channel on your mixer, so you can xfade as in the video. you shouldn’t need any special cables, though RCA to 1/4" adapters might be necessary.

…assumption is dangerous :wink: but i hope that helps.
