I've to say, the aim is to get 16 or 24 tracks, don't know if the dedicated card and then the ADAT links let this be? > I run/ran a 9632 > myself, and ran via ADAT some mic pres into it and was happy with that.

There something I can't figure out in what you say: how do you run your pre(amp?)s with ADAT? If so, they have to have ADC, don't they? TL-Audios don't, and I prefer to have good ADCs (dedicated). > I like a lot of what you had picked out, take it as you will. Have fun > though.
