Macbook - Recording audio

[disfunktion]

What is the easiest way to record audio onto my macbook?

Audio output is from from a mixer via phone.

Any simple way to do it? I only want to record an mp3 of a mix I DJ on Friday.

You want to take it from the mixer's recording outputs (failing this take it from master 2 or something), anything that's line level - headphone's aren't. Then you want a decent interface so it doesn't sound horrible with all the interference generated by the computer.

How much do you have to spend?

Yeh it'll be coming from 2nd output.

As little as possible

Audacity will handle the audio capture.

That's if you're taking it straight from source -> Mac, although it'd probably be better to hire a CD burner and just take a direct stereo output.

I also use audacity for recording my dj mixes. If you have a booth out on your mixer or a record out just put that into the line in.

Thanks guys, that'll do the trick. Not looking for uber quality, just something to record when we play out tomorrow night.
