Strengths: Very well made, straightforward design, excellent performance. Does exactly what you expect it to.
Weaknesses: I've found no weaknesses for the Tascam product. The accompanying software -- Cubase LE4 -- is dreadful.
Summary: Buy this product for the hardware. It's excellent. The Cubase product is not. Two major complaints: (1) They have an incredibly convoluted registration process. It took most of an hour to install and register. I guess it's supposed to prevent you from stealing or sharing the product. Who'd bother. Get Kristal or Audacity, or both. They're freeware, well designed, easy to use and perform well. (2) The Cubase interface is impossible. Imagine a Japanese company (TEAC) partnering with a German company (makers of Cubase) to distribute a hardware/software package with an English-language interface. I'm sure all the features you could imagine are in there somewhere, but the interface is totally inscrutable.
