No, the solution is to forget about decentralizing A/D and instead plug the analog cables into a central (bank of) A/D's which then feed a single multichannel audio interface (of which there are several to choose from). this is how recording studios do it, and its likely how you should too. ditto for the output - the single interface feeds a bank of centralized D/A which pass signals back to amps, monitors headphones etc. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
