If my MacBook Pro doesn't have a line in port, how do I plug this mixer into it?

I'm not overly familiar with Apple Laptops, but I think the headphone jack also serves as a line in (wish I had one available to test that out). Failing that, you could always get an inexpensive RCA Audio to USB cable/converter.

As far as I know you can't. You need a mixer with built-in USB port and those are expensive.

Use an audio interface. I use the focusrite scarlett 2X2 which I ordered from Amazon. There are many others though.

I actually have one of the new Macbook Pros with Retina as well. I bought my MPD32 used and it was completely lacking the included Ableton Live Lite Akai Pro Edition which it should have been bundled with. You should be able to get a copy online I'm sure. I believe you can always get a demo of Ableton Live from them directly as well at https://www.ableton.com/en/trial/. Honestly, you don't NEED that software.The AC Adapter is a little superfluous. Because the MPD32 is primarily a midi controller, I plug it directly into the Mac via USB and viola, we're off and running.

Patrick's answer is correct for some MacBook Pros. However, keep in mind that some newer model MacBooks don't have an audio line in, so the mic still won't work even if you buy the Y adapter.Do some research on your model to verify before getting the Y adapter. You can get a relatively inexpensive USB line in/out adapter instead.Don't waste your money on sennheiser's adapter if it won't work.Specifically, my 2013 MacBook Pro 13" Retina does not have a universal in/out, only out.

Use an RCA cable and conect the red and white one to the back of your mixer and the other end into the back of the amp. If you plug the RCA in to the auxiliary input you have to hit the Aux button on the front of the amplifier.

There should be a 1 meter cable included in the box that has regular USB on one end. The USB end plugs into the MacBook. check to see that it's there. Below is a list of the box contents..."In the boxJAM0.5m cable for connection to iPad and iPhone1m cable for connection to MacQuick start guideVelcro strip"

You can use a creative sound blaster USB Sound card to adapt on you Mac. It will send the signal to the adapter.

A 2x rca cable to 3.5 mm plugged in to the macs headphone jack should work.

Try other USB ports. U need to have a powered one. Especially important on MacBooks. Otherwise if mute is off u have a dud. Try another computer just to be sure.

There's had to be detective or they may need to check the program or settings that they're using with the mixer. I have USB output on the both the left and right sides

I run a cable from the head phone jack on the computer to an input on the mixer. Works great for me.

Hi, this isn't a USB mixer, you may connect it to your computer with a USB interface.

You have to hook up the line out from wireless mic receiver into the mic input on the mixer

There is a cable that is supposed to hook from the unit and another cable to hook to your macbook pro. This cable is almost impossible to find. Some sites may say the cable is available, but if you speak to them in person the cable is not available. The actual part number for the cable is in my review. Also will not work on iphone or ipad with lightening connector. Product has been discontinued so is a bit outdated. Would be a great product if I could connect, which I can't so I sent it back. Hope this helps.

The small radio transceiver plugs into a standard USB port. No extra hardware is required. you will have to download the MAC driver online from Logitech.

You will need the correct cable to connect the sound output from your computer to this mixer. Most likely you can use the correct connection for your computer to an unbalanced 1/4" input on this mixer. For example 1/8" TRS miniplug (headphone type) split into two 1/4" connections such as this: http://www.amazon.com/Hosa-CMP153-Cable-Inch-Dual/dp/B000068O3C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1411535734&sr=8-1&keywords=1%2F8%22+to+1%2F4%22+unbalanced
