Yep, two channels only for Pi. It's after all a consumer SoC designed
for mobile phones.
I am not sure how the Audioinjector Octo works but this has eight channels.
It uses a gate array with some kind of strange multiplexing. I have
added Matt, he will be able to explain more on the design ;-).

We are working with a university who have designed a Beaglebone cape
and I have written kernel driver for soundcard with up to 6
input/output channels designed for hearing aid research.
Please wait kindly and I will post a link to the Github page in coming
days with full hardware layout and kernel patch.
