I may perspectively run into a shortage of audio inputs and stumbled
across a blog, that reads like it is possbile to "merge" two soundcards
into one virtual, that eventually looks as a single one to alsa.
However, that blog does not mention jack.
Also, in an stone old ardour thread Paul Davis suggests to a similar
problem: ", then you simply get 2 digifaces", but again, this may have
been before the rise of jack.
And now I am wondering wether this is a possible or even reliable way to
trick jack into being able to to finally handle more than one soundcard,
if presented by alsa as being a single one.
I am honest, that asoundrc is way beyond me, as alsa alway has been,
thats why I am asking and I am thinking about using two ordinary, 1st
generation, pre HDSP, Hammerfall cards to expand ADAT IO. Would be
cheaper than investing into a raydat, when time has finally come.
The posts for reference:

Any thoughts on this? Or won't it work with jack?
