If you're looking for integration with Ardour etc.
as a controller,
_and_ you can live with a fully digital mixer (and hey, why not?) both
the Behringer X32 and the Allen&Heath GLD 80 are quite nice to work
with, the bugs have been shaken out by now, and they provide awesome
value for the cost. The A&H QU might be another nice option at a lower
price point.
Correction: the GLD 80 does not have a Linux-compatible interface card
available.
The X32 however works well with 32 ins and 32 outs, class-compliant,
just plug it and start jack. Only ever used it for recording, so I
haven't bothered to test the latency limits.
