Perhaps then a version of Jack with serious audio in mind, or even professional audio? Many audio people would use a number of cards/devices to get the number of channels they want, and very few cards provide for even 36 input channels in a single card. The comment about sampling sync drift is quite bizarre, but I read it often in the set up for Jack etc, even though practically all good cards/devices are provided with Word sync or other methods of locking the sync. I have spend hours trying to decipher the magic of .asoundrc and getting Qjackctl to use the virtual soundcard. It can probably be done with command line, but really as soon as I read command line I think maybe they want me to put the code on a floppy disk while wearing flares too (command line should always be available but never needed). I have a RME9652 card and a FCA1616 USB (both pretty standard for low end or live mixing) and I can get them to both appear in Ardour under Windows 7 ... but can't under UbuntuStudio , even though I have followed all the tutorials and the info in the ALSA manual. You should need to invoke magic and write config files to perform a standard sort of configuration (eg RME + FCA1616/ADA8200). I understand there is a problem with the control of a number of different cards, as the routing would need to know to which card you wanted to change a parameter of, and obviously the sampling protocols have to match.
