For my HDSP9652, I have 26 inputs and 26 outputs in qjackctl, no matter how many ADAT-(and S/P-DIF-)devices are actually connected. > The thing is that I want 4 outputs, too.

Does > it? jackd doesn't care about how or if you attached your A/D-converters. It just shows your soundcard. But if you use some input with and some input without Wordclock-sync, you will surely experience lots of dropouts. Not xruns, cause your soundcard's working fine with jack, the dropouts will come from the A/D-converters that don't sync with your soundcard. I tried to keep my Presonus converters in sync via ADAT, exclusively, and I got dropouts. The manufactures answer was, that I have to use Wordclock. Again, I had no problem with that f*** cheap Behringer-device, syncing it with ADAT. Could be fortune. I don't know. :) Greets!
