Apart from the fact that there are ways of doing this in software (with all the latency and uncertainty that arises there), you should *please* look at the archives of this list and find out why it is nearly impossible to do what you are thinking of. In short: You definitely need to get the clocks of the converters in sync. And you should also get the interrupts in sync. This first part is possible with some soundcards (in the higher price-range) and with firewire-soundcards (as long as they are supported by freebob/ffado). The second part involves kernel-hacking, is optional but should improve the stability. In clear words: In the price-range where people think about syncing two cheap soundcards to safe money instead of buying a higher quality device, this is not possible without jumping through a lot of hoops. In the price-range where this is easier, it is not used to sync two devices to get a total of up to 8 channels (for example) but used to get a total channel count of >=16...
