They're saying 4 inputs - it's not exactly clear whether this means 4
stereo or 4 mono but assuming it's four mono inputs you're going to
need a mixer anyway and once you reach that point I'm not sure if not
having a dedicated tracks for effects returns would be that much of a
problem for you but maybe you've got something cool in mind I haven't
thought of.
