recording mixes

if ur decks r no where near a PC is there some other way of still recording a mix onto some other type of device
and also if it is possible would u lose alot of sound quality to make it not worth doing

THANKS

minidisk works good for that, the quality is not bad but you are limited to the legnth of the minidisk.

it might be worth your while investing in some very long wires.. thats what i did and now i can hook up pretty much anything in the house to pretty much everything else

Yeah i have my MD player right next to my mixer so i can record all my sets and play em back after, i find i learn techniques a lot faster that way. With my computer in the other room its a lot easier to bring the MD player to the computer and plug it in there rather than hook up my mixer straight to the computer (i'm sure that would sound better but ease beats quality here haha). Buy one, mine was only 150 and that was when they first started gettin popular 5+ years ago.

i use a HHB Burn-it rackmount style studio burner.. it records in 24bit and you have the option to index the tracks on the fly.. after the mix is done, you hit finalize and the cd is complete with the tracks split up.. If it needs "mastering" you just take the cd over to your computer.. works wonders

an old pc/notebook.
invest about 80 on an M-Audio (havent heard it myself but ive read great things about its sound quality--yes even better than the audigy 2, supposedly). record to hard drive using RCA to stereo cable.

well, the things that other people have suggested--MD and jukebox--sound good, too. i just thought that it'd be nice to throw in another idea.
