These ones were made for the domestic rather than the studio market, 
but the design is essentially the same:

Currently its about 18 miles away, but I might convert a building in 
the garden for recording purposes. Do you know what the limitations 
on the length of S/PDIF cables are?

Yes, it has eight in/out jacks plus S/PDIF.

Absolutely - there are some very cheap mixers around now, but I do 
wonder about the quality of their analogue engineering. Personally, 
I'm very satisfied with the analogue stuff we have now, and I know 
the limitations are in my lack of skill, not the equipment.

I will - it's all an experiment as far as I'm concerned. I've found I 
learn the most that way.

Cheers!
