    Default Recording your mixes - Would this work?

    Hey guys. I know I've talked about this with some people already but I'm curious to see if my way of recording would work. My friend as my soundcard right now so I can't test it out... but here's what I'm thinking: Use TSP2 to mix, route all my audio through my Audio 8 to my mixer so my 4 decks are taken. Then, use the record out of my mixer and route it in an in of my Audio 8 and route that in TSP1, on the same computer to, let's say, deck a, and record external in TSP1. I would be running TSP1 and TSP2 at the same time, on the same computer, with the same soundcard. Will it work?

    I don't think you'd be able to get both TSP1 and 2 to use your soundcard at the same time. Not sure why you'd want to do this instead of the existing mix recorder functionality anyway?

    You can set one of your audio 8 inputs as the effects receive in traktor and use the built in recorder on tsp2. No need to run traktor twice bruv.

    I'm mixing externally, using 2 CDJs-400, a DJM-2000 and the S2 for 2 extra decks (mixer part of the S2 is not being used). Everything is mapped in Traktor, S2 controls deck A-B, CDJs C-D, and I'm using the touch screen of the 2000 with a custom map. But the mixer itself is not mapped, and because we often use Traktor, CDs and USB sticks in the same night, I want to be able to record everything with the mixer rec out, not just what's going on in Traktor.

    Like this here?
    The problem is that I'm using 4 decks. I can't sacrifice that 4th one and I don't want to either...

    Not sure what you mean by using the input, but I will often have 4 tracks playing at the same time in my next mix. That's why when it comes to recording it, I can't sacrifice deck D by dedicating it to recording. Could I maybe use Audacity instead of using 2 versions of Traktor? Or, could I use the dedicated soundcard in my DJM-2000 to record from the 2nd version of Traktor instead of the Audio 8?

    Use the DJM SC to record through Audacity. Job done.

    You are using an S2 for 2 decks, which requires 0 inputs. This leaves you with 2 free inputs for you to route recording into.

    Edit: You should ideally be using the CDJ 400s through USB HID rather than timecode, so all 4 input channels should be unused at the moment.

    And how's the sound quality? Because I know a lot of people were having issues recording with Audacity?
