I pretty sure it can be. The Numark Mixdeck has an iPod Dock that I can be used for this purpose, and it's just setting up specific recording software.

How well it works? I have no idea.

But I'm pretty sure it CAN be done.

^ how would u record in an ipod? i mean it doesnt have any software on it to hit record in, unless u do the voice memo on an iphone

Yes it can be done. You can use a mini AV to 3.5 mm cable and I believe the yellow has the mic input so You would connect yellow to your mixer the other end to your iPhone. It's not stereo though.

This will give stereo sound which I believe the way above will not.

This has a line input and you may be able to record crowd noise at the same time. If it recorded that on a separate track that would be ideal, but I haven't really researched that.

You could do it on the older ones…not sure about recent. But, getting that functionality required hacking them to run Linux. They had the converters, just not software to do the recording. It was probably cheaper to produce them that way somehow.

IHNFC if they still have the converters or if there are pre-built linux distros for them…but I'm sure you can find out with some creative googling.

Regardless, there are other devices that work at least as well…M-Audio at least used to make one, and GC was having a sale on another one not too long ago.
