I suggest not getting an 8 track if you want to get one, their really confusing.Stick with a 4-track.

Well... 4/8 track recorders are great for getting down ideas, but if you're after some decent sound quality, you'll want something to go to a computer.

Cool. One other thing. Can I build up guitar layers on it, like have one rhythm layer, and then record another, lead layer on top?

If you're talking about the 4 track recorders then yes you can. The fundamental idea is to be able to get a whole song written onto 4 tracks (basically impossible to me.... xd ) but oh well...

well, the 410 just puts the sound into your computer. from there you can use the software of your choice to do the editing and layering. I'd recommend using cakewalk or something of that nature to do your recording.

Would cubase work?

It works fine with me. It also has the benifit of using VST instruments/plugins, so you don't have to try to get a bunch of uneccessary stuff onto your guitar (like reverb or delay) until you get into cubase.

The other cool thing about this soundcard is that it not only boasts up to 8 outputs, but has 2 headphone mix outs so you and a buddy can jam without cluttering each other's sound.

Sounds really awesome. What else would I need for it (cables etc)?

well, you'll need a firewire port on your computer( 4 or 6, it really doesn't matter) , You'll need to make sure that you've got adaptors and such(you'll figure a lot of it out when you get it). Basically, if you've got computer speakers, then you'll have to get an adaptor for them to go into the headphone rig, which is currently my setup. if you've got some other type of speaker (Bookshelf monitors or something) you'll have to figure out some way of hooking all that up.

basically, if you own a guitar, you'll be fine.
