Or a Shuttle-type box.
NCIX has "barebones" systems for as little as $200. That'll get you a machine capable of recording 8 simultaneous tracks. Just add 8-channel input device.  |

Some pretty good-looking CSS-based layout. Should hold you in good stead for a while.
One thing I'd get Taylor to "fix" ("broken" being used subjectively this time) is the submenu navigation. ... |
