Nope, it only has 1/4" inputs.
4 tracks of simultaneous recording.
I prefer the auto punch-ins. I find yo can be a lot more accurate that way. Also, you have to be careful where you punch in and out, depending on the instrument that you're recording.
If you punch in at the wrong spot, you could cut off any ringing chords, strings, cymbals or whatever if your not careful.
If you do it right, it is pretty seemless.
