[linux-audio-user] Good Sound Card for Pro Multitracking

I am operating with 2 main scenarios in mind.  I am a jazz musician so I
would like to be able to record live shows and mix PA and Monitors for a
quartet so that's about 8 in and 6 out.  I need fully balanced inputs to
prevent hum on live gigs.  The second scenario is using the rig for my
recording studio.  (a work that is still in progress)  I would need multiple
inputs and outputs here as well.
