I think you hit the nail on the head here. Those little things
[integrated recorder/mixer] sound OK, and
it seems you are more interested in being a songwriter and saving some money
than you are in having a studio. I think you ought to give some of them
another chance.

The user interface on those things runs all the way from simple and
limited to dumbfounding and nearly unlimited. There are a few (Korg
seems to do a pretty good job of this) that are simple enough so that
I can understand them, yet are still fairly capable.

If
your budget is tiny, though, the flash card recorder from fostex is usable
for 'non-production quality' audio work. It costs $300 and has eight tracks
and effects that sound fine if used modestly, for your application.

That's one that's really simple and straightforward, and I think that
a singer/songwriter could get a lot of demo work done on one of those
Fostex things. But it would be rare that there would be any "keeper"
tracks just in case she gets a major deal.
