I'm trying to get my Dad to do his home recording on a PC however he
likes to record live on his digital studio. Track One - drum machine,
track two - guitar and track three vocals. He then adds other parts
onto other tracks afterwards.

A small mixer would also work (with a regular two channel card) assuming he
has MIDI capabilities. The drum machine wouldn't have to be recorded, just
monitored (at least until mixdown at which point he could record it either
as a whole or put different drums to different tracks for even more
control).
