recording question

i have some tracks to record, but nothing is software
based. i have hardware, which is run into a mixer and i have
all the cables necessary. looks like i'll be using an RCA
for the mixer output and it goes into an 1/8" input for
plugging into the soundcard. first off, i'm assuming this is
the best way to record off an external source? or should i
be using the Line Out and an adaptor cable to hook it up to
the computer. i'm going to be recording everything through
the mixer, not off of individual pieces of gear, so whatever
i have has to handle all the noise coming in, i'm not going
to multritrack record anything just yet. also, i need some
recommendations for software. i have a demo of cool edit pro
and it seems nice, but i'm wondering if there is a program
out there that would be better for what i'm doing or is just
better in general.

i use mixer>rca>1/8 just like you describe for the same
purposes. it works great for me.

cooledit pro is under-rated in my opinion. i find it's
worked extremely well. i've done countless recordings with
it. it's easy to understand and has a great interface. i
recommend that.
