I am also looking into this as well, I hve been researching and reading reviews for different products. I am looking at the "MasterLink ML-9600 High-Resolution Master Disk Recorder" I am almost at the piont where I make up my mind to buy this unless some thing extremely negative is reported for this product that i seiousl doubt will happen.
This piece of equipment is about 600 or so may be less even, and it is a dedicated hardware too.
Good luck
Happy listening
