Hi Kevin, the hdsp 9652 is 3 x adat i/o plus 1 spdif so you need 
external adat-capable gear. I had 2 behringer ada8000's which are 
cheap (These have 8 preamps, balanced plugs, clock, 8 line-outs 
that -- at least in these early behringer models -- inadvertently 
inverted phase, chinese quality all in all) but ok for what I could 
afford at the time.

In order to monitor your input you either route in hdspmixer (any to 
any) back via adat into external into line-outs. Or you include 
Ardour's mixer to set up monitor busses (which is a bit painful) for 
loads of headphone mixes back to hdspmixer etc.

Actually if Ardour had some kind of mechanism to show you all sends 
(think all mic routes of a band recording) to a bus (think headphone 
mix busses) in one place ... With good latency setup this would be 
wicked.
