# Mixcloud

### Archiving from Mixxx

1. Open the Mixxx preferences and select the “Recording” tab.
2. Choose “MP3” as Output File Format, “CBR” as Bitrate Mode, and “128kbit/s” as the Quality.
3. You may also need to specify the Recordings Directory. Click the Browse button to pick where you would like the MP3 to be saved.
4. Click the OK button to save the preferences.
5. To record your show, I recommend in Mixxx you click the record button (cassette tape looking button to immediate left of broadcast button) right after you connect to the broadcast server and before you start your first track.
6. Remember to stop recording (click record button again) after you turn of the broadcast.
