DJ Mixer Setup: Plugging in Turntables

Video Transcript

"Alright now I'm going to show you how to plug in your turntable to your mixer. So of course everything is on the back. You take the RCA cables that are coming out of your turntable and you put them into whichever line you want them in. Now you want to put the turntable into a line that says phono. Phono is phonograph which is another name for a turntable. So you put your red in your red. This one in particular is Phono 1, and your white in your white. Make sure they're plugged in all the way because if they're out a little bit you may lose one of your lines or both of them. You can also put in others. I have a number of other possible lines here and since this is a three channel mixer I can have three things coming in. Let's say I want to put in an IPod. I take this cord right here, another RCA, which goes from RCA to eighth of an inch. Now you take that, you put it in line three, which is a line in particular that I like to use, plug it in, make sure it's plugged in great, plug it into your IPod, good to go."
