+1 Michael hit it on the nose. However... Even if you're a newby but serious about wanting to learn, it might be worth the sizable investment of your time and attention to learning the 2816. I think a lot of the learning curve can be applied to other digital boards and systems. I've got a 4416 and I keep the manual nearby but it can do a lot and is very versatile. It's great for tracking but the editing does suck. I use AWExtract to convert to WAV and dump into the computer for slice and dice.
