This is quite a big setup and I don't think it
will fit in our budget, so if
we could find a solution to buy it partially and then complete it aftewards,
it would be perfect.(2 inputs would be fine as a start, since we can just use
two SM57 to record all the instruments and use our existing analog system to
amplify the instruments that need it). Also, a physical control surface would
be a plus...
Have a look at my "el-cheapo howto", that presents a way to get into
multitrack recording very cheaply.

I am using this to record my drumkit with Ardour with 6 simultaneous channels.
El-cheapo should give you a good and affordable start, and it will
give you flexibility to postpone the investement on the multitrack
soundcard until later.

Timo,
Are you sure about this note in your howto?
Jack configuration
Qjackctl is not good with the multichannel device, but
causes a lot of xruns. Therefore when you start the
multichannel device use jackstart in a terminal, not
using Qjackctl.
My qjackctl uses jackstart to start jack by default. But,
jackstart is not good enough for me (due to kernel issues it
turns out, see Ardour users' mailing list archives if curious).
So, I change the qjackctl setup to use jackd-realtime to start
jack. It works beautifully.
The rest of your howto is pretty clever.
Cheers....
