i just wanted to know how to record a mix from mixer onto computer...i've got a djm 600 mixer and that has a rec out (RCA), i'm assuming all i have to do is connect that to the line in on my soundcard (soundblaster live)....the only software i have is creative recorder which came with my soundcard, this records the audio as a wav file which i can burn onto cd (i think), is this what i should do, or is there a better or correct way???

That'll do... just make sure you set the "Line-In" levels on the computer so that you don't clip!

If you don't know how to do this, right click on the little speaker icon by the clock, select Open Volume Controls. Select Options (from the menu) -> Propreties. It'll open another window, hit the "Recording" bullet and click "OK". You should now see all the sliders for your Recording side of things. If you have a meter on the recording app and it's clipping, take the "Line-In" slider down on the Recording Control window.

What I do when I'm recording my mixest for myself (practice) I get real producer from www.realnetworks.com and just record my mixest straight to a real audio file. That way I can get like an hour of mix into a 11 meg file.

But that wouldn't be acceptable for recording a CD.
