How do you hook up an MP3 player to a mixer?

Answer 1

You'll need to get a stereo male headphone jack to stereo RCA adapter. You can get these at Radioshack. Then just plug one side of the adaptor into the headphone plug on the MP3 player and the other end into the back of the mixer on one of the line channels (not phono). -DJ Craig

Answer 2

On the back of your mixer there will be to outputs that say "output". Take your red and white audio cables and put red to red white to white, you know the deal. Then take the other end and put it in the "input " slot on you power amp. This sends the audio from your audio source (turntable, iPod, mp3, laptop etc.) into your mixer then the cords you just hooked up will go to the power amp carrying the sound out. then hook up your speakers to your power amp and just turn your components. Turn on all of your componets to your setup, and if you have all the wires hooked up correctly the music or movie whatever your playing should come out of you speakers.

Answer 3

Connect the two plugs of the audio cable to the (white plug) left and (red plug) right output jacks for the take deck on the home stereo. Insert the plugs on the other end into the corresponding left and right input jacks of the amplifier. Set the component selector on the home stereo to Tape 2 and the amplifier's component selector to the set of jacks connecting it to the home stereo.
