RE: New Mixer for a Young Band

The junior Onyx boards have that Firewire option, which sends up to 18 channels separately to the PC for multi-track mixing. But then again, isn't recording done best one instrument at a time? So unless we really wanted to record live shows, is this $450 Firewire card a sham?

I'll look into the Soundcraft, but another inmate suggested buying new because abused boards can quickly lead to noise. The current hissing of my analog and digital preamps is what's keeping me from recording now. So maybe I'm leaning toward the Mackie Onyx 24.4, if I can find it cheap?
