Thanks for the reply. I'm gonna try to find someone who has one to look at. I'm not dead against computers, I just like the simplicity and sometimes restraints of studios in a box. I came from 16 track reel to reel to Roland vs 2480, but it's not gonna last forever. Just looking for something new. Again thanksGood point, the latest generation of mixers are making recording performances easier. First it was USB to computer, then USB flash drives, now SD cards. I think they're also allowing playback, but mostly for "virtual soundcheck," where you can play back a previous show's recording at the next venue. I don't know if there's much in the way of punch-ins or other editing available. But things do change fast. I'm sure you could find more answers on the Presonus website.
