just to clarify: the delta 1010 has 8 analog i/o.
The other 2 channels are S/PDIF.
The 1010 has word-clock sync so you *should* be able
to run 2 of them together for 16 analog I/O, or 3 for 24;
i know people do it regularly under Windows, but I don't know what's
involved in doing that on Linux. Probably some
black magic in .asoundrc.
But for the price of a pair of 1010s you could just as easily get
a Hammerfall and some cheapish converters.
Creamware's A16 Ultra might do the job, if I read the specs
right: looks like it has 16 channels of I/O, 2 ADAT connectors
(8 channels each), and price of US $1k.
Or a pair of Alesis AI3, which would definitely do the trick
and sell for US $400 each.
