Recording my set, Best file size?

Recording my set, Best file size?

Hi peeps, I want to try to record my set tonight. Ill be playing for about 4 hours.

Question is what file size do you guys think would be the best for not crashing the mac (MBP 2011 13" i5 2,3. 4gb 1337 ram, standard hd)? Or is there software i can run with traktor to record without using a lot of resources?

Cheers fellow S4 users:slight_smile:

just use traktors internal recorder, change file size in the prefs to the max of 2 gig, which ist about 3h. it then will start a new file, but you can simply put them together in audacity

2 thumbs up for this!

Aha, nice, was afraid this would cause a crash or a hickup when traktor starts with a new file and finish the last one, when the file size is set to so big… Ill try, and fuck if its works out fine Ill be happy:stuck_out_tongue:

Cheers buds!

I do it all the time like this.

Just home from the club now, and recorded my sett, about 3 1/2 - 4 hours i think atm. Had the record size on 2gb. Worked great, no hickups or crash:slight_smile: Thanks for the help peeps!!

Will upload this very commersial mix tomorrow, since it was a prome for the local high school.

Once again cheers! :slight_smile:
