I am operating with 2 main scenarios in mind. I am a jazz musician so I
would like to be able to record live shows and mix PA and Monitors for a
quartet so that's about 8 in and 6 out. I need fully balanced inputs to
prevent hum on live gigs. The second scenario is using the rig for my
recording studio. (a work that is still in progress) I would need multiple
inputs and outputs here as well.
