: Please help. I am trying to record from my technics turntables to Pro Tools (to record a live mix cd) but can't seem to get it going. I'm using an iMac and my mixer is connected to the mic input on the side of it. Do I need an interface to be able to record?

If you use a mixer the RIAA correction (pre-amp) takes place there. Your mixer probably will have a line-out voltage. That means, you must not use the mic input of your iMac, but the line-input. (which type iMac do you have? My iMac has no mic-in or line-in, so I bought the iMic from Griffin, which I connect with my iMac thruogh USB).
I have no experience with ProTools. Maybe you can consider to use Autacity. Also free. (see http://audacity.sourceforge.net/about.php?lang=en).
I hope my anser will help you.
