$400.00

The Pros:Ideal for those getting into recording - has 4 inputs plus MIDI and digitial ins and outs. Good value - has lots of essential features. Robust - can handle all the advertised MIDI and audio channels simultaneously.

The Cons:Inputs produce mediocre sound - competing units provide better sound. Requires fairly expensive software to take full advantage of all the mixdowns. Mediocre bundled software - limited in terms of usability.
