Simplicity to the rescue. I used to do that when I recorded my old mixes.
Makes sure you can get a sample it before they go live.
Get them to 0dbz it out on the mixer and make sure your mic line in is reading just below peak. That way you are getting in all of the signal you can get without worrying about distortion (assuming when the DJ's mix they dont go too far into the red). |
I learned some of that the hard way. I borrowed a friends laptop and recording hardware this past weekend. The DJ whom I recorded the set for got wasted and kept BLASTING; Redline almost the whole time on the DJM3000 ROFL.

Alright, well if you're happy with that - I'm glad you found something, but if you want any other recommendations for audio devices, I'll gladly help (was away getting dinner and packing to move when you posted this).
Under $100 wouldn't be easy though, so I'd say just stick with the line in on your laptop for now.
And remember, never record anything without permission - one of the biggest locals in Chicago got banned from the biggest club in the city for a year for recording an Armin set.
Not saying you'd have the same kind of problems, but it doesn't hurt to ask  |
I would be more than glad to take your recommendations as well. 
And no, I'm not recording anything like that without permission; just sets from DJs I play with from FLTA including myself.
Using this line in I will be recording this Friday night in Miami, again on Labor Day @ Blue in Miami Beach and again on SURVIVAL NIGHT.
