Hello Josh. I had considered that unit briefly, until I found out that there weren't inputs for what I needed. I've never been satisfied with the mono sound of instrument inputs. I therefore use a pedal and spread out the sound with dual outputs. This unit wouldn't help me in that regard. I therefore used a program on the computer called NTrack. I can mix the audio how I like it, and then feed it into the computer and layer as I please. I did a review on Main Menu several years ago, and I hope that it helps you, if you decide to go the computer route. You can edit the resulting mixed-down .wav file in any number of editing programs to get rid of the before-song stuff. I hope you can return the Tascam unit without problems, if you find it not to meet your needs. I never actually tried out the unit, but maybe you can get sighted assistance to show you the menu structure for the things that you need, and memorize enough to go where you need to go. Thanks a lot. Matthew
