Best value: Excellent
Purchased to save repeated and models at home.

Used with a PC (Core 2, 2GB ram, sound card m-audio delta 44)

No problem with drivers for Windows XP and 7

Used with Cubase on the PC.

Used 8-track simultaneous recording.

RAS

Used repeated 3 tracks for drums (snare, bass drum and an overhead), a guitar track, bass track 1 and 3 voice tracks.

No worries, no stall 1:30 on continuously. The preamps do very boen for instruments, a little lighter on the vocals.

Mixing is possible on the R16, the effects are correct for the layout, but the work is tedious because of the sub-menus.

Used at home in divided doses (8 drum tracks, guitar tracks 2 (static + dynamic microphones), 2 bass tracks (DI + microphones), and 3 voice track, and mixing of cubs with waves plugin is perfect.
The votes being taken with a condenser microphone made a high sensitivity, the sound is very good.
The export file is in wav (you can put the SD card directly into the pc) and then with a good mix and good effects the result is very good.

For my usage value for money is unbeatable.

Namely that the r16 is also used in sound card to record directly to the PC.
