This will definitely be one of the much-improved areas of the book.
Ecasound, Ardour, and Audacity all have varying degrees of support for
professional multitracking requirements, and they will all be profiled.
I'm actively seeking material assistance from RME and MIDIman in order
to test their hardware in larger-scale recording circumstances,
hopefully they'll be able to help out.

Thanks for the kind message, Jay. I have a lot of work in front of me
now, but it's beloved labor and something I've been hoping to do. I
figure it will take close to a year before we actually see the 2nd
edition, and much will undoubtedly change during the composition of the
material. I hope you continue to enjoy the 1st edition. Meanwhile, stay
tuned... :)
