Can someone explain to how (connectors) and I guess the best way to tap into the soundboard of a DJ. I will be using a Roland R-09 digital recorder.

Thanks,
John

Depending on the dj mixer, you can use "record out" rca or xlr(whichever it comes with) or use the "control room" out of the dj mixer to a stereo track input or use a y-adapter(rca to 1/4 stereo tip). If the dj mixer does not have a seperate out then........................I dunno, try useing the amp outs to your recorder monitoring via hjacks.

If the soundboard has pre-fader aux outs, try to use those. The DJ is going to be continually changing the main out levels - aux out comes earlier and will be (or at least can be) at a constant level.

Thanks. I will look into your suggestions.
