Hi crossfader, would not be easy just to use a USB to record your mixes? And a camera or phone for video? Not sure if I am missing something . Thank you!
I think one of the advantages of using an external recorder you guys missed. It's that you can also record the crowd and if you make a video or even a mix set bring in the crowd cheers to flaunt your talent even more.
It’s 44 hours and 53 minutes not 44 minutes and 53 seconds that can be recorded via the WAV format - WAV (44.1khz, 16 bit) runs at 10.09MB per minute not 606MB 😂
Brilliant, my Behringer 700 is kicking the proverbial bucket after 15 years so I am looking for new ones and notice the outputs have changed a little bit so this vid was very helpful, cheers!
The most useful solution is direct recording via usb calble from the X1850 to the laptop and use the free software Audacity! Every channel including the rec out is recorded separately, and there are no losses because of double (D/A and then A/D) coding.
Thanks for the thorough video, very informative! I probably will buy an external recorded like a Tascam or a Zoom soon, but it was very nice to see that my "new" (just got it used, will replace my Xone:22) home mixer DJM450 has some abilities, too. Great video.
is there any difference in quality with the various recording techniques, i mostly do the traktor record one, any less quality as opposed to recording through the mixer itself?
Hi! Have you found the best options for recording with a tractor? I have a constantly low level of recording, I think how to improve: with the help of external sound card or recorder, what do you say?
Couldn’t figure out for the absolute longest how to record on Audacity with a Pioneer 900 Nexus 2 on a Mac. After watching countless videos on RUclips and reading help forums online I finally found the answer. One small tip that was not mentioned on this video either; Under the Mixer Output tab on the settings utility, turn ALL channels to “Mix (Rec Out)”.
Hi mate, I’m looking into video recording my vinyl dj sets at home. Just a couple of things I need to know really. 1 - What sort of camera do I need for video recording? I’m just looking basic. 2 - mostly important, How do I get the best sound quality from the mix? Would I need an output from my mixer, or I’ve got a Scarlet interface actually? Do I need to input the signal from the mixer to the video recording device? I could really do with some clarity on this please. Thanks Andy
Hi great video! I was needing help with the DR-05x which is displayed in the thumbnail, am I able to record with this device while operating Traktor software at the same time? I have technical issues with recording on traktor software… plus would like to start recording with DR-05x out and about now.
I have a Hercules Impulse 300 MK2 controller, and I use Serato. The Serato software does not allow me to record streamed music, I use Tidal. I only have the two outputs for speakers, as well as the output to the laptop ( between the console and the laptop I have an external drive for the music). What equipment is needed to record my sets and the crowd as well? Smiles. Also can you tell me what equipment I will need to connect up more than just two speakers? Thanks very much for your assistance. Dexter
Hey there! I have a quite old DJM-600 with no USB and only one master out (which I use for the main speakers). I also have a booth monitor output with RCA. Could I use the booth monitor RCA output and directly plug it into my computer (RCA-aux cable) to record my vinyl sets? Great video!! Thanks in advance :)
Hi, thanks for this info man. Unfortunately Evermix went out of business and I was looking at other recorders just incase something went wrong with the Evermix box I have. I was wondering what you would recommend between the Tape 2 by Reloop or the Tascam recorder for recording mixes on say a ddj-flx4 or a ddj 1000?
Thanks for this video! I was wondering, though: When recording a set from the mixer to Audacity on your pc/laptop, why is the external soundcard necessary? Why not simply connect the rec out from your mixer via an RCA/3.5 mm jack cable to the mic input on your pc? I'm just trying to figure out what the actual advantage of that external soundcard is in this setup.
The 3.5mm input on most laptop's is set up for Microphones rather than line level inputs. As such it runs a lot hotter and will distort when a line level device is connected like a mixer. Some laptops will allow you to change this, but not all, as such we can't recommend this method :)
@Crossfader If you had to choose between an Allen and Heath PX5 or a Pioneer DJM 750 mk2 mixer (purely for mixing purposes and forget about filters and effects) which mixer would you choose? I have 2x CDJ 850's and Pioneer DM 40 speakers and I'm stuck between the 2 mixers I just mentioned I mainly mix happy hardcore and drum n bass
is it possible to connect smartphone instead of laptop with the usb cable, and install rekordbox on it so you can save proper audio on spare phone instead of bringing laptop with you every time if we wanna do it that way?
Hey there, this is very helpful, thank you. Im trying to record Vinyl dj set, audio and video. My mixer is a Behringer DJX750. It only has rca outputs only. Trying to connect directly to Android phone with usb-c input. Is that possible, if so, how?. If not, what do you suggest?
An old video so I pray you can answer!, I'm using an FLX4 but I'm streaming through beatport and can't use rekordboxs record function, what I'd love is something I can put between the master out wires and my speakers? Audacity with multiple attempts will not work, thanks guys
Hey fellow boppers! Im finaly gettin a decent audio interface. Everybody talks about scarlett focusrite, wich is ob viously a great product!! I came across the Roland Rubix44, and am very interested. However online It never gets mentioned. Im gonna use it for connecting ableton to my ddj800, and for recording etc. Any advice or thoughts anybody?
Why don’t anyone ever mention VirtualDJ? Strange that it’s the most popular and downloaded software in the Workd for DJING but no one mentions it on videos like this.
Evermix is fab but the cable connector is quite tight easy to break pins if you take it out each time to fit in the case... Had to buy expensive replacements other than that it is Ace I recommend it :-)
Thank you so much for your explanation. I'm trying to record from Audacity but the sound goes only on one line instead of both as your video shows. I recorded a little mix and now the sound comes out only on one speaker .
So for now Im analog with vinyl, have Technics sh dj1200 mixer and 1210s decks. However Im keen on getting into DVS and being able to record sets is just a plus! So I need a serato-box thats either gonna be a used SL3 like shown here or a Denon DS1. Which will be better? Denon doesnt have the aux input, like SL3, but the mixer has rec out... It would be nice to record in serato, but Im thinking about getting a Tape2 for the recording bit, so maybe I dont need the extra input on the serato-box?
I have a controller and reckordbox wont let me record my set. It says its unable to because I am using souncloud for my song selection. Is there anyway to get around this?
@@nickh4989 i might be mistaken here but if its anything like my issue, am i right in saying that you mean, when you record in audacity, the recording picks up the sound in your headphones out on the mix yeah, if thats the case then after your mix has recorded you will see two input channels representing stereo, as i have a ddj 200 controller, this doesnt have its own soundcard and uses the laptops, so what i have to do in audacity is split the stereo by clicking the x on the bottom waveform therefore i am then left with a mono recording, but at least i cant hear the headphones, might be off track but i think thats what you mean.
@@ItsTehEnzo no you cant and you cant record streamed tunes in rekordbox from Beatport link either but using Audacity lets you record anything, streamed or not
Excellent video. My RANE MP2015 has RCA outs but also USB out and SPDIF, which output would best suit high quality recording (e.g 96khz, 24bit) & would you use an H4N Pro, Audacity or a DAW like Bitwig to record the output? Also, when using a DAW to record a live DJ Set should you have your buffer/block size set to low (eg 32 samples) or high (e.g 1024)? Cheers.
Great question! Personally I would use the USB connection to record your mix directly into a DAW for recording purposes. Using the USB will allow you to record a digital copy of your mix without using the DAC of the mixer and the ADC of a recorder, which will influence the sound of the recording. The buffer size won't matter too much as your only recording, not needing to have a low latency for performance reasons. Set this to what your computer can comfortably handle and then leave it. Hope this helps!
@@Crossfader hey thanks for reply, much appreciated! So, I could actually max out my Bitwig buffer size to 2048 and get rock solid processing because Im not using Rekordbox or Serato or anything, just the CDJ3000s and my mixer, all the processing is done before the digital signal gets to the DAW. Is there any benefit in terms of quality to maxing out the buffer, does the additional time my pc has to process the digital signal make a difference to the quality? When i look at the DSP Performance graph its jitter free with no peaks or anything so id assume thats a real positive and could minimise pops, artifacts etc?
Hello Crossfader, thanks for your videos, I would like to know what’s the best option for recording sets in HIGH QUALITY audio, which one it’s better for this purpose, Zoom, tascam or evermix? Are handy recorders better than evermix? Please help, if there is no difference at all I’ll buy evermix...
You can change the quality of your recording format on almost every option. However most streaming sites such as mixcloud and soundcloud will compress your mix upon upload so sometimes it's not worth the added file size to record this way.
@@Crossfader Thanks for the fast answer, so no one it’s better than the other in audio quality? I’ll be recording from a xone 92 and no streaming, just want the good audio quality I’m between Evermix or irig stream, do u recommend any in particular? Thanks again
@@jdmz096 I'm sure one will be better than the other in some way if we looked close enough but it's not something I could 100% say without going back and testing for it. Using unbalanced connections and a phone for power isn't the best recipe for anyone chasing the ultimate in sound quality and I highly doubt there will be a noticeable difference in either device, especially when using 320kps MP3 files to DJ with. Both sound good enough in short, I'm sure you won't be disappointed with either!
great video very informative and knowledge on using Mics? Is there anyway to record with a microphone using digital usb decks? the ones that do have a Mic in don't record the audio input just send the signal out to the master. Serato Rekordbox anyone? a usb input into pc wont record into this software can audacity access e.g serato's mixing? thanks
HOW TO REC MY TRAKTORS Z2 CUTS-SCRATCH TO A DAW FOR MY HIP HOP BEATS? I ALWAYS SCRATCH LIVE BUT NEVER RECORD ANYTHING FROM Z2...MY DAW IS REAPER...SO IF YOU CAN TELL ME THE EXACT PROCESS OF RECORD ONLY THE SCRATCH-CUT PART OF MY VOCAL-STEM-SOUND EFFECT ETC AND SAVE IT AS WAV IT WOULD BE GREAT...(EXTERNAL OR INTERNAL RECORDING IS THE RIGHT WAY?) (IM GREEK SO SORRY IF I ASK SOME "STUPID" QUESTION...AND PLEASE DONT JUDGE ME IF I COMEBACK WITH ANOTHER QUESTION) I USE TRAKTOR PRO 3
Well... Not on Mac (I hate Macs and it's one of the reasons) you can simply get also internal sound card for PCI bus and I'd say it's the best and most desirable way of recording (but even more for streaming).
Can I use a presonos audiobox usb to act as a soundcard, to then wire to my audio recording software, which is Logic Pro ? RCA would go from recording slots in my mixer, to the audio box as well.
hi my friend, i ve just bought a audiobox usb 96 and trying to record my dj sets on interface, although i watched your video it is recording but i cant see what i play on my dj deck, it is not posible to record dj set on presonus audiobox usb 96 ? thank you
I have a FLX4 and old MacBook Pro with Audacity and struggling to record despite ‘FLX4’ showing on drop down in Audacity. I’ve tried to download VB Cable as another site recommended and nothing. Any tips please?
Using the build in recording feature of Rekordbox is a big hassle. It always compresses my audio unevenly (high and mid more) any settings or level I'm playing. Does anyone experience this? I'm starting to think maybe it's related to the fact I'm using 320 mp3 and the output is wav and the realtime conversion causes this.
Hi I was thinking of buying a Olympus ls-p4 but I see it only has mic out and not line out will I still get a good recording or should I get something with a line out like tascam dr 40x Thanks ps I don’t want to record to my iPhone
Well I bought an external recorder (4CH, Stereo Mic) to try it out. The main advantage is that I can record my audience (with stereo mics), as well as my DJ set(in stereo). Later, in Ableton, I drag-drop and sync them up and mix/master them as I see fit. The crowd yelling and clapping bring your sets to life :)
hello! the name of our product is EvermixBox, it costs £110 and you can order it on www.evermix.fm -just make sure you click on the drop down menu and select the right cable for your phone-either ios or android usb-c
Hello friends to Crossfader, how can record a good quality sound with my Numark Mixtrack Pro 3? I been use Serato Dj but the quality sound no it's the best and is low, I want a better quality sound, I been test Mp3 and Wav tracks sound and the result was te same, so can give me a advice? I been thinkig to buy a external soundcard lika a Foucusrite or some else cheap
Hey guys I have a question. I use a ddj 1000 with rekordbox and a MacBook Pro 2017. for some reason there’s sound coming out of my speakers and headphones. Everything works just like it’s supposed to. But in the recording panel it catches no sound. Like all my recordings are just quiet and the sound bar doesn’t show anything there either. Thanks for any help ✌🏻.
I’m having trouble recording on serato. I’m able to record but when I play it back it sounds way quieter than what I was recording at. Any tips to fix this!?
yes you could but why would you bother as the RX series already have a dedicated REC USB feature built in that records excellent sound quality no need for mastering?
I've been having a problem with recording in Audacity using my Pioneer DJM S9. For whatever reason, it will only record when i have it set to 8 Channels, but I want it to record in Stereo (2channels). When I open the Settings Utilities, my outputs are set to ; 1/2: Phono. 3/4: Phono. 5/6: Mix (Rec Out) 7/8:FX Send.
I was having this same problem. I don't know how to explain this well because I'm not yet technically proficient but basically your mixer is a sound card with 8 channels. Since your 5/6 channels are set to "Mix (Rec Out)", you have to select these specific channels for recording. Unfortunately, Audacity does not support this (I don't know if it does in later versions). You could try to set up Serato so that it records on 1/2 but I don't know how to do that. If you're on Mac you can use Garageband: Create an audio track, select your mixer and select "Inputs 5 + 6" in the inputs drop down box.
Thanks Crossfader. I have an X1850 and connected via USB. Audacity picked up the mixer, but every time I press record, no sound comes through the software, its just a flat line. Can you help or point me in the right direction?
I use my internal soundcard on my mixer to record in traktor, have everything set up correctly and can record mixes but they're recording low volume even when the recorder gain is turned all the way up. Seriously considering the evermix
hello. im using pioneer ddj sb2 controller. i can rec on serato but when i move mix to pc to play, it just shows the time but no audio unless im playing it on serato . i just really want to rec my mix and share it on a few platforms. any help much appreciation!
I want the best possible soundquality on my recorded sets..than I have to use an external soundcard instead the Realtek in my laptop?I want the same sound cumming out of my monitors by my DDJ-RR controller..recorded with Recordbox on my laptop is not same sound-quality.. can you help me please?thanx :(

hey! can you tell me how to record a set with the simplest focusrite and windows computer? i've been trying everything you said but it doesn't work. I don't have an SL3 setting, only MME or Wasapi. i use cinch-big jack cabel... it records in shitty quality only on one channel... wtf... i tried everything
My AUDACITY keeps crashing over and over and over again; its a hit or miss; sometimes it records sometimes it doesn't. Any way to fix it or make it work always?
I’ve had a completely nightmare with the Evermix box and it worked for like 3 weeks and then started playing this awful crunching scratching sound. And now I can’t record my sets , I took the advice and re downloaded the app re booted my phone updated my phone ect and it still doesn’t work and all they can say is because it’s a app error and it’s my iphone??
Hello guys, I need a little help, I am struggling to record a set mix with my 2 turntables Reloop RP8000 and my mixer Reloop RMX60 which don't have an integrity sound card interface, but I have I REC OUTPUT on the back of my mixer. SO WHAT DEVICE YOU RECOMMEND TO USE. Thank you very much!
You can connect an external recorder to this port such as the Tascam, alternatively connect a soundcard such as the Behringer uca 202 and record the performance via your computer.

great video very informative and knowledge on using Mics? Is there anyway to record with a microphone using digital usb decks? the ones that do have a Mic in don't record the audio input just send the signal out to the master. Serato Rekordbox anyone? a usb input into pc wont record into this software can audacity access e.g serato's mixing? thanks
HOW TO REC MY TRAKTORS Z2 CUTS-SCRATCH TO A DAW FOR MY HIP HOP BEATS? I ALWAYS SCRATCH LIVE BUT NEVER RECORD ANYTHING FROM Z2...MY DAW IS REAPER...SO IF YOU CAN TELL ME THE EXACT PROCESS OF RECORD ONLY THE SCRATCH-CUT PART OF MY VOCAL-STEM-SOUND EFFECT ETC AND SAVE IT AS WAV IT WOULD BE GREAT...(EXTERNAL OR INTERNAL RECORDING IS THE RIGHT WAY?) (IM GREEK SO SORRY IF I ASK SOME "STUPID" QUESTION...AND PLEASE DONT JUDGE ME IF I COMEBACK WITH ANOTHER QUESTION) I USE TRAKTOR PRO 3
Well... Not on Mac (I hate Macs and it's one of the reasons) you can simply get also internal sound card for PCI bus and I'd say it's the best and most desirable way of recording (but even more for streaming).
Can I use a presonos audiobox usb to act as a soundcard, to then wire to my audio recording software, which is Logic Pro ? RCA would go from recording slots in my mixer, to the audio box as well.
hi my friend, i ve just bought a audiobox usb 96 and trying to record my dj sets on interface, although i watched your video it is recording but i cant see what i play on my dj deck, it is not posible to record dj set on presonus audiobox usb 96 ? thank you
I wish you would have gone into detail on how to record with the External Recorder. Like what settings to use and all. Kinda just skimmed thru it
Any way to add time stamps while recording? On Club Equipment and Controllers? I know it’s possible on the XDJ-R3 but not sure about the other two
I have a FLX4 and old MacBook Pro with Audacity and struggling to record despite ‘FLX4’ showing on drop down in Audacity. I’ve tried to download VB Cable as another site recommended and nothing. Any tips please?
Nice one, good vid
hey, thanks for the vid. Can I use an Evermix box with my DDJ-400 and Djay pro 2 (alogoriddim)? (Djay pro 2 won't let me record Spotify tracks) thanks
I have this same problem, did you ever find a solution?
Always good vids. Ta!
Awesome and simple 👍
Is the Denon X1850 sound card compliant ???? Because I'm having issues recording with Audacity and my MacBook Pro ?
Can you record music streamed from tidal using the irig
how to record on virtual dj, or serato dj pro if you are mixing using beatport or soundcloud tracks ? you missed this point. pls guide
Great stuff keep it up
Using the build in recording feature of Rekordbox is a big hassle. It always compresses my audio unevenly (high and mid more) any settings or level I'm playing. Does anyone experience this?
I'm starting to think maybe it's related to the fact I'm using 320 mp3 and the output is wav and the realtime conversion causes this.
I have an old Rane SL1 can I still use that as my sound card? What are the limitations?
Hi I was thinking of buying a Olympus ls-p4 but I see it only has mic out and not line out will I still get a good recording or should I get something with a line out like tascam dr 40x Thanks ps I don’t want to record to my iPhone
so i usually just record from my dj software...are there advantages of using external recorders over the usual ones?
Well I bought an external recorder (4CH, Stereo Mic) to try it out. The main advantage is that I can record my audience (with stereo mics), as well as my DJ set(in stereo). Later, in Ableton, I drag-drop and sync them up and mix/master them as I see fit. The crowd yelling and clapping bring your sets to life :)
@@SweetAssasination thanks! really considering getting one.
What is the exact name of that box for recording to a phone, whats the Price and where can i buy it?
hello! the name of our product is EvermixBox, it costs £110 and you can order it on www.evermix.fm -just make sure you click on the drop down menu and select the right cable for your phone-either ios or android usb-c
If you have a Denon prime 2 or 4 and don't want to use a laptop will evermix work with it?

Hey guys I have a question. I use a ddj 1000 with rekordbox and a MacBook Pro 2017. for some reason there’s sound coming out of my speakers and headphones. Everything works just like it’s supposed to. But in the recording panel it catches no sound. Like all my recordings are just quiet and the sound bar doesn’t show anything there either. Thanks for any help ✌🏻.
so audacity would work great if i mix with traktor and ableton? a good external device would be good so you dont burn cpu resources
Can we also record ourself via normal iphone camera using this
I’m having trouble recording on serato. I’m able to record but when I play it back it sounds way quieter than what I was recording at. Any tips to fix this!?
I have a Pioneer XDJ-RX2. I also have Rekordbox on my laptop. Can I record a live mix from my XDJ-RX2 onto my laptop via USB (Rekordbox)?
yes you could but why would you bother as the RX series already have a dedicated REC USB feature built in that records excellent sound quality no need for mastering?

Hi does the ever ever mix box work with the djm400 pioneer 2 channel mixer ??? Thank you
I've been having a problem with recording in Audacity using my Pioneer DJM S9. For whatever reason, it will only record when i have it set to 8 Channels, but I want it to record in Stereo (2channels). When I open the Settings Utilities, my outputs are set to ; 1/2: Phono. 3/4: Phono. 5/6: Mix (Rec Out) 7/8:FX Send.
I was having this same problem. I don't know how to explain this well because I'm not yet technically proficient but basically your mixer is a sound card with 8 channels. Since your 5/6 channels are set to "Mix (Rec Out)", you have to select these specific channels for recording. Unfortunately, Audacity does not support this (I don't know if it does in later versions). You could try to set up Serato so that it records on 1/2 but I don't know how to do that. If you're on Mac you can use Garageband: Create an audio track, select your mixer and select "Inputs 5 + 6" in the inputs drop down box.
Thanks Crossfader. I have an X1850 and connected via USB. Audacity picked up the mixer, but every time I press record, no sound comes through the software, its just a flat line. Can you help or point me in the right direction?
Enable Broadcast mode in the mixer :)
@@Crossfader perfect. Worked fine. 💪
I use my internal soundcard on my mixer to record in traktor, have everything set up correctly and can record mixes but they're recording low volume even when the recorder gain is turned all the way up. Seriously considering the evermix
Probably set to Rec out not Master out.

I'm trying to record from Djay Pro from Algoriddim into rekordbox but can't hear any output as I'm DJing - is there an easy fix for this?
My AUDACITY keeps crashing over and over and over again; its a hit or miss; sometimes it records sometimes it doesn't. Any way to fix it or make it work always?
I’ve had a completely nightmare with the Evermix box and it worked for like 3 weeks and then started playing this awful crunching scratching sound. And now I can’t record my sets , I took the advice and re downloaded the app re booted my phone updated my phone ect and it still doesn’t work and all they can say is because it’s a app error and it’s my iphone??
Hello guys, I need a little help, I am struggling to record a set mix with my 2 turntables Reloop RP8000 and my mixer Reloop RMX60 which don't have an integrity sound card interface, but I have I REC OUTPUT on the back of my mixer. SO WHAT DEVICE YOU RECOMMEND TO USE. Thank you very much!
You can connect an external recorder to this port such as the Tascam, alternatively connect a soundcard such as the Behringer uca 202 and record the performance via your computer.
