Oops... Question is, on the QjackCtl setup settings, there IS in deed
this 32 in/out channels limit.

It's not a jackd limit; it's a QjackCtl/UI one.

Mea culpa. I will try to make it larger, but it will be bounded
nevertheless (999 channels maybe? :)

OTOH, there's this tip about leaving in/out channels set to 0 (zerO) so
let the alsa backend deliver the whole channel set as far it might be.
Hardware wise, that is.

Try that.

That should be yet another qjackctl/jackd parameter to tweak when you
have the potential of having a lot of so many channel client
applications plus ports and forth eating your audio path setup :]

Bye now
