Question:
Besides a computer with a multi-in sound card or analog tape, what are the other options for doing multi-track recording?

Answer:
ADAT, DTRS (DA-88), DASH, Mitsubishi. Plus lots and lots of standalone hard disk recorders varying from the really slick RADAR down to the Tascam and Mackie units. I don't have any problem with linear recording, but it definitely seems to be on the way out these days. So machines like the DA-38s, which are really great for live event recordings, are basically selling for peanuts.
