i do the same thing - run my mixer into my pc soundcard into soundforge then
burn the cd using cd architect (with track markings). the only problem i
find is that i get a recording that sounds a bit flat. that's probably the
result of my cheap soundblaster 64 soundcard. i've recently been recording
from my mixer straight into a sony minidisc recorder. now that has a crisp
clear sound. so if you have a digital input into your computer - that would
produce the best results.

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.
