If your mixer has a tape in (pair or RCA jacks), and you are using the headphone output of your laptop, you'll need an 1/8-inch stereo male to a pair of RCA males to make the connection.

Good Luck,

Gary

Be sure to buy the BEST you can find. That headphone signal into a mixer can hum and squeal like a stuck pig.
