How can I connect my AT SL20 + Yamaha Receiver RX-570 into my Maschine MK3

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello! I'm trying to connect my Audio Technics SL 20 turntable to my Maschine MK3 using a Yamaha RX 570 receiver, but it doesn't work at all.

The SL20 is connected to the PHONE function on the RX 570 and the Line In (p10) MK3 is connected to the receiver via the REC OUT (RCA) option.

The Turntable is correctly connected to the RX 570 and the output settings are correct, I believe the problem is in the connection between the RX 570 and the MK3.

I think I'm missing something in the Maschine Software configuration, but I don't know what.

I've tried everything and with all available Combinations.

Someone please help me, I NEED TO SAMPLING

What exactly is not working? You can’t hear the sound or what else?
Are you sure in the sampling page no signal comes in? You can see it by the meters at the bottom of the page (and to also hear the audio Monitor (close to the meters) must be activated). But External and the right Maschine In must be selected.

Which leads you to a partial problem I see in your first picture: you have selected one input for Maschine In 1 and the other for Maschine In 2 (that would make you anyway have a mono signal coming in).

Once you corrected that, the right choices must be done to be able to receive and hear a signal

The Maschine doesn't detect any sound, thats the exatcly problem.

I select the right source (ext. Ster.) input (in 1 L+R) but stills the same, no sound detected.

By the Way, thank you for trying to help!

Not that this will solve the audio not coming in, but you are still selecting things wrongly in the audio settings (now you have input L going in Maschine 1 IN and input R going in Maschine 2 IN).

Btw: why using WASAPI and not Asio driver? Try to use Asio… even because I see that you have Shared mode in use and other audio programs using it (maybe also the mic icon colored at the bottom right of the screen)… this could be part of the problem

And also: did you test (maybe with a portable speaker) if using your receiver’s Tape 1 Rec Out outputs the sound? Long time I don’t use things like this (with a Tape rec/in), but I recall that it was not such a “straight” thing. The receiver could be “deciding” what gets routed to the Tape Rec Out, and maybe the Phono Input is not (it could even be a reason why it is separated from the other inputs, if it’s not only for the ground screw).
I would make some tests (as testing if that output works with other gears (as said a speaker), if the other inputs (like CD) do send to Tape Rec Out, if using the headphones out (instead of Tape Rec Out) works …)

Ok, after running some tests I may have eliminated some possible errors.

I discovered that the problem is not in the receiver or the turntable.

Using the RCA+Jack cable in all REC OUT options (changing the output route through the Receiver option) the MK3 does not recognize any sound in the Line In inputs (1 or 2). But when I connect any of the options (red or white) to the MIC input THE MASCHINE STARTS TO RECOGNIZE THE SOUND (it sounds really bad, but it recognizes it). This led me to understand that the problem is not in the turntable or the receiver or the cables, but in the recognition of the MK3 or the audio preferences that I made.

To confirm, I also connected another p2>p10 cable to my cell phone and to the MIC input and it also worked, I also connected the PHONES output of the Receiver to the MIC input of the MK3 and it also worked.

In my research I discovered that if the MIC input is being used the LINE IN input (1 or 2) is disabled immediately, so I believe it is something like this.

Below is a picture of the audio configuration I am using, I changed it to ASIO.
