I've got a whole studio set up so I have a master mixer where my dj mixer plugs into. The main mixer then goes into my PC soundcard. I record the whole mix to SoundForge.
You could record directly from your Dj mixer into your PC. Only tricky part is calibrating the levels on your mixer and the recording level of the software you're using. As a rule of thumb, I try to keep the mix peaking at about -2...that gives me a bit of headroom if I want to crank the bass without getting a clipped signal. So far, the set up has worked really well. Me and fellow 313 lister, John Shipman have used my set up for recording to HD and then burning mixes to Cd; the results have been spectacular. Let me know if you need a deeper explaination of the setup.
