Sound Quality On Recorded Mixes?

[DJ Spliff]

Anyone know any tricks for improving sound quality using Audacity? Just started recording my mixes and don't know anything about Audacity. Playback is sounding a little distorted.

Make sure youre not clipping Audacity

Dont go over 0db on your mixer

^^^^that above, make sure ya recordin levels aren't clippin red, best to record low and then you can boost levels in a mastering suit maybe...

if you use wavepad sound editor (its free) you can record it quietly and the program has a thing where you can amplify it
