It will be able to capture and playback 4 stereo channels at the same time, at anything from 44.1 khz up to 192khz. It can also pass samples to and from the EMU10K2 DSP, but it transfers them in blocks of 8 mono channels. e.g. DSP fxchannel 0-7 or 8-15 or 16-23 etc. So, I think it would be better if the multichannel patch you are doing uses those groupings of channels for multichannel play/capture.
