Earlier this year, I wrestled with which way to go digitally, PC or standalone. I knew I wanted better than my old Yamaha 4-track cassette, and weighed the plusses and minuses of both. In the end, I was so twisted around, I decided to do nothing until the Fall, and well, here we are. I'm noticing the collapse in price of the Korg D-16 ($1199 just about everywhere), and wonder how I can go wrong at that price. Of course, I'm sure you all will set me straight, so have at it!!!
