getting the vinyl into the sampler I recommend the radial phono pre. super clean and lots of detail. from a technic 1200 with a shure cartridge of course. much better fidelity than a dj mixer in my opinion. occasionally I use an mpc to arrange my own recordings. basically sampling myself. I run the 8 outputs into my racks of hardware and mix on the ssl x-desk. the difference is insane. after spending my whole teenage life making beats and wondering how they made it sound so amazing when my sampler sounding so whimpy its easy to hear what all the hardware is doing. I would recommend looking at the Neve 511 which can operate at line level. it has the silk feature for adding extra umph, a useful filter and sounds soooo good. its also one of the most affordable 500 series pres out there. I recently mixed some beats for a guy producing on the sp1200 and he was very happy with the results and difference from his references. it still had the grit but it went from narrow and thin to wide and in your face Thanks for the reply. Are you going through 8x 511s into DAW? Or just mix out (mono)?

I'm going through a variety of eqs, compressors, fx and mixing at the ssl x-desk. I have used my 511 to thicken the thin but I only own 1 of them. a rack of 8 would be killer I bet.
