REAR PANEL
1. POWER INPUT – Connect a 12V DC – 2A power adapter (center pin positive) to this jack then into an
electrical outlet.
2. POWER ADAPTER RESTRAINT – You can secure a power adapter cable to this restraint to prevent it
from accidentally unplugging.
3. POWER SWITCH – Turns MPC Renaissance's power on/off.
4. COMPUTER USB PORT– Use the included USB cable to connect this port to an available USB port on
your computer. This connection allows MPC Renaissance to send/receive MIDI data to/from the MPC
software.
5. USB HUB OUTPUTS – You can connect additional USB devices (controllers, hard drives, etc.) to these
powered USB ports. In addition to being an audio interface, these ports allow MPC Renaissance to function
as a powered USB hub when it is powered on.
6. STEREO OUT – Connect these 1/4" TRS outputs to your speaker system (not included). The signal sent
out of these outputs is the main mix. In the MPC software, you can set what is routed to these outputs in
the Program Mixer tab, by selecting 1,2 as the OUT for one pad or multiple pads.
7. ASSIGNABLE MIX OUT – Connect these 1/4" TRS outputs to an external mixer (not included). The signal
sent from these outputs is full-volume (0 dB). In the MPC software, you can set what is routed to these
outputs in the Program Mixer tab, by selecting 3,4 as the OUT for one pad or multiple pads.
8. S/PDIF IN/OUT – Use standard RCA cables to connect these jacks to devices that can send/receive digital
audio.
9. MIC IN – Connect an external sound source or microphone to these jacks using standard 1/4" TRS or XLR
cables. Make sure to set the MIC/LINE SWITCH appropriately.
10. MIC/LINE SWITCH – Set this switch appropriately for the device you connected to the MIC IN jacks. If your
sound source is a microphone, set it to MIC. If your sound source is a line-level device, like an external
mixer or keyboard, set it to LINE.
11. PHANTOM POWER SWITCH – This switch activates and deactivates phantom power. When activated,
phantom power supplies +48V to both MIC IN inputs. Please note that most dynamic microphones do not
require phantom power, while most condenser microphones do. Consult your microphone's documentation
to find out whether it needs phantom power.
12. PHONO IN – Connect these RCA inputs to an external sound source (e.g., a turntable, CD player, etc.).
Make sure to set the PHONO/LINE SWITCH appropriately.
13. PHONO/LINE SWITCH – Flip this switch to the appropriate position, depending on the device connected to
the AUX INPUTS. If you are using phono-level turntables, set this switch to "PHONO" to provide the
additional amplification needed for phono-level signals. If using a line-level device, such as a CD player or
sampler, set this switch to "LINE."
14. GROUND TERMINAL – If you connected a phono-level turntable to the PHONO IN jacks and are hearing a
low hum or buzz, this could mean that the turntable is not grounded. If the turntable has a grounding wire,
connect it to this terminal.
Note: Some turntables have a grounding wire built into the RCA connection and, therefore, nothing needs
to be connected to the grounding terminal.
15. MIDI IN – Use a five-pin MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT of an optional external MIDI device to the
MIDI IN of MPC Renaissance.
16. MIDI OUT – Use a five-pin MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT of MPC Renaissance to the MIDI IN of an
optional external device.
