Macbook Pro Tahoe 26, Pioneer DJM-S11 … Audacity will not record while the mixer is connected

  1. The option in Audacity to choose the recording input of “Serato Virtual Audio” is available.
  2. Without the DJ Mixer connected Audacity does record; but with an echo/delay
  3. With the DJ Mixer Connected Audacity does NOT record any sound.
    1. DJ Mixer Firmware updated
    2. Drivers updated on Macbook Pro for DJ Mixer
    3. Serato updated 4.0.1

A few questions - which may be obvious to you but not for someone who does not know your equipment:

  1. The “Pioneer DJM-S11” is a mixer, right?
  2. What other equipment is involved (turntable, instruments, microphones, etc.)?
  3. How is that equipment connected together?
  4. What is “Serato Virtual Audio”? Why is it needed?
  5. Any other things I forgot to ask?

Usually, any signal coming from outside can be recorded by Audacity (as long as Audacity has access to “Microphone” in the system settings. A MacBook has no proper analog sound-in. If your mixer does not provide a digital USB sound-out, you need an external USB sound card.
