I'm trying to find out what kind of interface I could use with my Laptop pc to maxmise the amount of channels I could record in, in one go. I.e. 16 - 24 channels in I'm not to worried about having loads of outputs as I feel I'll only need 2 out for monitors. Would love to here peoples suggestions, as I'm only in the early…

Would love to here peoples suggestions, as I'm only in the early stages of researching this.

RME fireface or M-audio 2626 will both give you 8 analogue, 16 adat and 2 spdif. M-audio profire lightbridge will give you 32 adat and 2 spdif.
I am running an RME Digiface and have 26 inputs at 64 buffer in Logic on a mac pro.

Either USB or Firewire will do the job at that end of things.....

16 tracks at once isnt that hard for most systems....
