Inputs only, line level only, but if that is all you need... < $200 seems
great. I don't know what the quality is like, but it seems to be the
cheapest adat anything I have seen. It should be easier to get line level
inputs right than mic preamps.

The Fostex VC-8 is supposed to be even less, but the line ins are rca,
read unbalanced., but then many of your keyboards out will be unbalanced
at -10db anyway. I'm not sure how easy they are to find though.

Well these are about 1/2 of anything else with the same function... lots
of mic pre/lineout adat stuff for about $500, but I have heard mixed
reviews on the quality of things from Behringer. (something about things
burning up from improper cooling)
