Recording Your Mix does any1 no how to hook ya decks up 2 ya comp? i have the lead but not sure how to record it
Re: Recording Your Mix i jus have a lead that has rca (red/white phono) connections on one end an a 3.5mm jack on the other... jus plug that into the back of the mixer and the mic input on my laptop then record it using soundforge or cool edit or something like that
If you have nero Wav editor , all you do is lead from the 'rec' port on your dex and record that way but be careful it doesn't record distorted, apre-amp is ueseful...
for some reason, my mixer recordss really fuckin loud on the comp! You have to be careful.... Then u can make it an MP3 file, then burn that to CD
turn your recod level down on your computer then? just click on the speaker in your icon tray on the task bar...
Wav... Why compress the file to MP3 if you are putting it onto CD-r? Are you short of blank CR-r's? Leave it as a .wav file, allowing you to enjoy the full frequency ranges and harmonic sidebands, which would otherwise be removed by MP3 compression. :angel3:
If you need a bit more in-depth help take a look at this: HOWTO: Recording & Burning a set on your PC. ...and this might also help: HOWTO: Gapless burning ...and maybe even: HOW TO...put minidisk to computer
Re: Wav... Cos i am not very knowledgeable on recording stuff on my computer... It seems to automatically convert it to an mp3 when you save it....
Re: Re: Wav... use a different program, save it as Windows PCM (.wav), so its just raw sound data. ont use a lossy format if your gonna stick it on CD.....
Re: Re: Re: Wav... OK I am tryin out all these tips but it still won't even record without being horribly loud and distorted.... it only works when i turn the channel volumes on my mixer down really low...then i can't hear what I'm doing It's really annoying... it does this on every program i try to record with.... The thing is as well.... A few months ago it was recording ok...maybe my mixer has decided it hates me!
if youve got a DJM then u might need to set the screw thing at the back, which controls the master output. (dont know its realy name cos i havent got a DJM). Open your windows sound properties (from the task bar or control panel), and open the recording section. Select which input you are using to record. Then Open your application that u plan to use to record (cool edit, soundforge etc), and monitor the record level. Stick a record on, then look at the levels in your application. Using both your windows and mixer master level, set the level so it isnt clipping (below 0db), and they arent in the red. Then u should be set to go, and it wont sound distorted (unless you are wacking up the EQs during your transitions, or throughout the mix....so dont....) hope this helps... If it doesn,t go to the techie forum, and search for recording, there loads of info...
haha...ta... I only know there is one as on NYD they had failed to set ANY of the sound levels in the mixmag room, so throughout my set i had someone constantly turning it!
