[QUOTE="darkmelody, post: 1026427, member: 40578"] Sounds like your system prefs meant that you were recording through the built in mic on the MBP. As the other poster said, you want to look into an audio interface, they start from about $100 second hand.

Great deals on eBay![/url] If you get one with two stereo inputs, you can hook right and left turntables up to seperate channels, this would allow you to edit after the fact....(not that you ever make mistakes I'm sure;D) An interface with only one stereo in mean you would connect your mixer into the interface in, then the interface into your computer. I would use the "booth monitor" outs on the back of the mixer, allowing you to keep your "Master out" connected to your speakers. Then in your DAW search through the preferences to make sure you are getting your audio from the interface not from the internal mic. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
