i'm using a vestax setup as well (turns and mixer) and i got it hooked up to my soundcard..
my old (as well as my new) soundcard had chinch-connectors in an external unit.. if you don't have such a unit you can also use chinch to jack cables that you just connect via a regular line-in port
what the best program for recording is, i can't tell you.. my old soundcard (sound blaster platinum) had a simple "recorder" software that was working perfectly for this..
of course you can use other recording software as cool edit pro or similar which unfortunately is not free.. (even though there is a free version of cool edit, but i haven't used it so far, and i don't know whether this function is available in the free version.. you can try yourself though)
Same questions for me. I have a very basic Numark cd mix 1 and want to start recording my mixes so I can critique them, and potentially send demos at some point.
I have a laptop and an ipod touch, how would I go about hooking up my dj equipment to the computer in order to record a mix? I don't care if I have to pay for a program, there's just so many so I have no clue which is the best to choose for a newb!
Take the audio outputs from your dj gear and run them into the audio inputs of your recording gear / audio interface / soundcard. Monitor your levels. press record.
how hard was that?
Just type in "free wave editor" in google. find something. click download. install.
