Reply to Recording setup for multi-track mix

Hi everyone,

I was looking for some input on what would be the best way to setup your hardware and software for multitrack recording....last time I did this was YEAAAAARS! ago using CoolEdit pro before Traktor or Serato or any controllers were out. It was a lot easier of a setup.

What would be the best way to set things up if I'm currently running 2 12's, mixer, and Traktor Scratch pro using Adobe Audition to record.

I did some digging, most of the info I could find about mixtape recording was based around mastering and effects. I was hoping to get some guidance as far as actual setup goes. What is ideal, what is needed, etc.

Also, I see some people are using Abelton to record multi-track...any thoughts of Abelton being a better choice over Audition?
