Recording DJ sets in Ableton Live

[samjane]

The only thing I've used to record a live set is Soundforge, and that was on a PC. I just got Ableton setup on my Macbook and figure I should put it to good use. I was wondering if anyone know how to record a live dj set with this program? And also, what cords would I need to hook up from the mixer to my Mac.


Thanks in advance

That program is overkill for just recording a line-in set from your decks.

Just use Audio Hijack Pro, or Wiretap. Then import that .WAV into Live.
