How are your decks connected to Ableton? Are they earthed???? Have you turned any wifi or wireless devices off whilst recording? Could be one of a million things, we need more info on your setup

Ok you have some decent kit, have you a decent soundcard on your computer?
Have you also tried recording from your cdj's into another program like Sony Soundforge?
I would suggest the process of elimination. Start off with the bare essentials, disconnect anything you dont really need to use, close down any programs and turn off any services you dont need on your computer either.

and You get all the power supply from one source, don't You? I just point that one, as it is sometimes the reason.
It might be the AC as well.
