    DJing How to start recording sets

    Hello!!

    Ive been listening to dance music since very early 90s. I have a pioneer set with 2 cdjs. I wanna start recording my sets and mix online. I was wondering about what programs I need and how I setup my pioneer set to my laptop.

      On the simplest of levels you need A pro audio interface (get one with 2 outputs at least) and software such as cakewalk to allow you to record and edit your sets.
