Reply to Recording Problem

This is my setup.


x2 Technics 1210, x1 DJM400 Mixer (2 Channel), Macbook Pro and Traktor A6 soundcard.

When i record a DJ Mix i notice that the sound comes out very low. I use x2 Multicore cables for each channels so that i can switch between timecode and normal vinyl. I use an RCA cable from the output 2 main of the mixer to the Input 3 of the Traktor A6.

The gain on the record mix is up to the max. My gains are not clipping on my mixer. I notice the mix is slightly louder if i turn up the volume on the mixer main or channel gains.

Surely this cannot be right that for me to have a decent sound, when i had the Traktor S4 i had decent volume sound the more i turned up the recording gain.

There are no other ports in my mixer to try out. Would the UCA222 external sound card be a better option as i don't really use timecode that much.

Can you please help i have looked everywhere for a solution.
