Very true. Creative Labs does not make good pro audio cards. They make cheese video game cards...thats it. Go with M-Audio Delta 1010 or anything by RME.

Behringer 700 that 5 channels mixer, and maybe it's the tweaking.

its your mixer.

my buddy recorded all of his vinyls to mp3 when he had a gemini. had to rerecord all of them when he got his vestax. the sound quality was so much different.

its your mixer. keep your audio card and buy a new mixer.

Argh! So my Behringer 700 isn't good enough? Damn! Why does Djing has to be so expensive...

Yea i have a DJX700 also. Sound quality blows on the Recording Outputs. I decided to connect it to the booth outputs cuz it gave me control over the output volume to boost the volume. Give it a try.

Anthony.. why is that?? THats a weird defect. Are you talking about the PCI version or all of them?

I guess you get what you pay for... no wonder, I spend $200 on a mixer, $150 on a soundcard = moderate recording sound.

Also your needles will make a huge difference. What are you running? I am running Ortofon Nightclubs-S so the sound is decent. I just need a better soundcard. Your sound quality will only be as good as that of the weakest component in your setup

Yeah my needles suck, $35 stantons something. I think it has to be my Behringer 700 mixer. I love it though, for $200 you can't beat that.

for $200 you could have bought a numark matrix 3 made by alesis. not a pioneer or vestax, but much betetr then the behringer. sound is better, features are better and its made a hell of a lot better.
