[LAU] need soundcard recommendations

hey everyone,

my friend and I are starting a recording project that will require
multiple mic inputs. my soundcard has only two xlr inputs, and I need
at least 8. I could buy a cheap mixer and and sum everything up, but
I'd like to have access to all of the channels in ardour if possible.
does anyone have any recommendations for "pro-sumer" soundcards that
have at minimum 8 xlr inputs?

I remember someone mentioning using the behringer adat ada converter +
an adat card to do this, but I can't remember how that worked or what
the other piece of hardware was.

anyway, I'll take any and all suggestions you have :)
