I didn't think S/PDIF was capable of 96K, but it would be nice :)
At least I'd be able to get/send 96K in stereo to/from other gear,
to see what I'm missing in 48K Land.

Isn't 8+4+2 == 14 channels at 96K?
Oops, just for the record, maybe I was mistaken
about the Multiface,
after re-reading this:

"The Multiface offers eight channels of analog I/O and digital SPDIF,
as well as ADAT in and out for a total of 20 channels of 24bit/96kHz
audio. The Digiface offers three ADAT in and outs and SPDIF for a
total of 26 channels."
So maybe the Multiface can do eight 24/96 channels using the internal
A/D+D/A *plus* four more 24/96 channels using the ADAT ports to/from
a double-speed external convertor such as the ADI-8DS:
This is correct. The multiface can do 8 i/o at 96k with the internal
converters plus an additional 4 (via smux adat) at 96k. At lower
sample rates it will do 8 channels on the ADAT ports. The SPDIF adds
another 2 channels of digital i/o (not sure if that goes up
to 96k or not... i guess it does by the advertising).

Vs. 8+8+2 == 18 channels at 96K?
??? If you're meaning the Digiface here, wouldn't it also be
8+4+2 == 14, because for every 8 channels at 96K, you need a
*pair* of ADAT i/o; the Digi only has three.
You then *maybe* get 2 more outputs using the
headphone output if it is
BTW, does the headphone socket work? I seem to remember Paul Davis
saying (when he first wrote the driver) that the only things not
supported (yet) were the headphone/line out socket and the LEDs.
Goodnight,
