Yes, RCA cables.

The EFX connects to the mixer.

Just try to set it up bro.

No offense, but you seem to own way too much expensive equipment to not have the slightest idea of what type of cables you need or how to connect anything together....

Break out your manuals and just try to set it up, I promise you it is not that hard, and you just might learn something!

Thank you very much. But the question remains 1.

I think buy audio card

and think how it can connect to my Mac (laptop), because it is not USB, etc.

What can you say about this?


P.S.
.....
and where you want to include wires, if I need (for example) 2 channel?

Hey man, look up "focusrite saffire firewire" sound card, this sound card is the dogs, its got 8 individual outs which means you can have stereo out-in's to the four channels on the mixer. it comes with a software mixer that is easy to configure and it also has some sweet wee extras as well.

What ping pong are we talking about? On the effect of Ableton or "sport"?
